Git Integration - Commit Issue

Hi SivaMani 

The most common cause is that an item (e.g., a notebook or pipeline) with the same name and type exists both in your Fabric workspace and in the Git repository, but they are not properly linked or synced

good discussion here

https://www.reddit.com/r/MicrosoftFabric/comments/1l72okx/git_integration_commit_issue/

Start by checking for duplicates, ensure all artifacts are synced, and use clean directories for new integrations. If problems persist, disconnect and reconnect your Git integration, or consider starting with a new branch or repo if feasible

Hi SivaMani ,

This error usually means there’s already an item in your Git repo with the same name or type as what you’re trying to commit from Fabric. Even if you can’t see duplicates at first glance, sometimes things like notebooks or pipelines might be out of sync between Fabric and your repo.

A couple of things worth trying:

• Double-check that there aren’t any items with the same name both in your Fabric workspace and in the repo.
• Make sure all changes are synced up before you try another commit.
• If you’re still stuck, sometimes disconnecting and reconnecting the Git integration helps. You could also try committing your changes to a new branch if that’s an option.

If nothing works, cleaning up any old or duplicate files before syncing can sometimes do the trick.

Hope this helps! Let us know how it goes or if you need more help.

Hi SivaMani ,

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Community.

As nilendraFabric  and burakkaragoz  correctly pointed out the root cause of the error typically lies in a naming conflict. Specifically, when an item with the same name and type already exists in the Git repository but is not properly linked or synchronized with your Fabric workspace. This results in a Git_GitProviderPathAlreadyExistsException.

To resolve this, start by checking for any duplicate artifacts such as notebooks or pipelines in both Fabric and your Git repository. Ensure all items are properly synced before committing changes. If the conflict persists, consider renaming the artifact in Fabric or removing the conflicting file from Git. As a recovery step, you might also try disconnecting and reconnecting the Git integration or committing your changes to a new branch.

SivaMani Seems we indeed have a bug on the Fabric side. Thanks for helping us find it!
We are fixing it now and hoping to get it released within few weeks. As a workaround, you might want to change the relevant directory name in Git (if its an item directory, it has no impact), I think that can be a potential workaround.
