Datawarehouse Subfolder DisplayNameValidationFail Error while syncing git branch to new workspace
Thank you for your replies.
I solved it, and, indeed, it was something with the folder structure.

Hi Gerrelt
The error you mentioned usually indicates folder naming conflicts or unsupported nested folder structures. Currently, Microsoft Fabric Git integration supports mostly flat folder hierarchies, so deeply nested folders or invalid folder names can cause validation failures.
To fix this, rename folders/subfolders to simple names without special characters, avoid duplicate display names for warehouses or other objects, and consider flattening your folder structure in your workspace. Manual conflict resolution in Git may also be necessary before syncing.
Always verify object name consistency across branches to avoid sync conflicts.
