Can't import my github project

I’ve tried to upload my github project many times now, and I get same error every time.
“Arg, something went wrong. Try again? :@”
I’ve putted in (my github name/rep name) and it doesn’t works.

^That isn’t my real repository of course, but I’ve putted in my real one in the Github import field.

Hey @lillishaj can you share the repo you are using so someone can take a look? There are some things in a remote repo that can cause problems for the import.

mm?
does anyone knows a solution for this?

Try creating project from a GitHub repository or try to create just a new fresh project and import code to it.

Doesn’t works^
Idk why I got problem with this.

try linking your account to github, if that does not work, create a new account will be that of your best bet

Hi @lillishaj, I had the same problem, try importing then type refresh in the console.

Hey @lillishaj the problem here is that you have a node_modules folder committed to your GitHub repo. Importing a repo with a node_modules directory won’t work in Glitch since Glitch expects to manage your node_modules directory itself.

If you remove that directory from the repo (or a fork of it) and import that, it should work, and you should end up with the same node modules installed once Glitch has completed the installation step.

Hope this helps!

Hello I am having the same issue with my repo here. I just made 5 other glitch servers to see how this works but I want them all deleted as well. I was thinking maybe I got rate limited since I am making so many servers:

I go to Import from github and enter the above link but it doesn’t seem to work. Is the .gitignore messing with glitch?
