Hi I'm trying to get rid of an Untracked File in git on Bash in Ubuntu on windows 10. I'm able to push/pull no issues.
when i go
git status
I get the following:
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
/Home/SignInButton.js
nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
if i got into the directory, i get
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 655 Jun 9 22:43 LogInButton.js
-????????? ? ? ? ? ? SignInButton.js
I have tried the following commands
git rm No change
git checkout -- . No change
git reset --hard Reset but still the same warning
git clean -f -d I get the "No such file or directory"
git stash No change
What else should I try?

The numerous ?
in the file listing indicates a situation where the Linux subsystem has tried to clear out the resource, but something outside of the subsystem is keeping it around.
Once all open filehandles are closed, both within and outside of the Linux subsystem, the delete operation should complete.
