When doing appwrite init function im getting the following:
ā Error Command failed: git clone --depth 1 --sparse https://github.com/appwrite/functions-starter .
Cloning into '.'...
fatal: cannot change to 'https://github.com/appwrite/functions-starter': No such file or directory
error: failed to initialize sparse-checkout
any ideas why this is happening?
Input:
? What would you like to name your function? Is Already Registered ? What ID would you like to have for your function? unique() ? What runtime would you like to use? Dart (dart-2.17)
What could be the reason?

is your appwrite CLI up to date?

1.2.1

error: failed to initialize sparse-checkout
This error was an issue with a certain version of git i think.

appwrite projects get --projectId [PROJECT_ID]
can you run this command, and see if it works?

use the correct projectid

You are right, my git version is old and rusty, after upgrading it worked! Thanks š

I was on 2.26.1 and now im on 2.40.0

That's great š
Glad it worked! Please change the post title to [SOLVED] appwrite init function fails
if you can <:appwritecheers:892495536823861258>
