west init completes but leaves everything in zephyr/manifest-tmp

See original GitHub issue

I have no idea what causes this or how to reliably reproduce it, but running west init on windows occasionally leaves everything in the zephyr/manifest-tmp folder upon “successful” completion. west update subsequently fails because everything is in the wrong place.

So, @mbolivar-nordic should west switch to some OS-dependent and “standard” /tmp locations to escape this sort of concurrency? Even if the interactions with IDEs ends up being harmless, it’s not “nice” to confuse them.

I thought about that, but then you’re inviting issues with cross-filesystem moves, which are a can of worms of their own. If you have a strategy for accomplishing this ask, I’m open to ideas, though.

sorry, I rename it , it must be this

I don’t understand what you mean, sorry. It looks like you have edited the logs. This makes it hard to understand them since I cannot know for sure how the output comes from the input, or even if the output is accurate.

Maybe you are using a private repository. I understand if you cannot share that.

But do you maybe have some way to make a manifest you can share which reproduces the issue for you? That would be really helpful, thank you.
