Learn Git by Building an SQL Reference Object - Build an SQL Reference Object || Error with initial commit and I can't reset tutorial

Backend Development
1

Tell us what’s happening:
I reached the step where I have to type "git commit -m “Initial commit”. When I did I got an error message which I couldn’t screenshot. The test said I should check my git status so I typed “git status”, the sept was passed and the next one was to check git log. But I can’t pass it, the log didn’t load and the test message kept saying I had to check git status.
I tried reseting the tutorial, it takes me back to step 1 but doesn’t delete the files, and now in step 1 it keeps saying to check git status.
I’m stack as I can’t even start the tutorial again from 0.
Any help with this, please?

Ok, so now I tried reseting the tutorial and manually deleting the sql_reference directory.

I started now the tutorial from the step that requires to create a new directory with “mkdir sql_reference”, I do that and that step checks.

Then, on the next steps that requires to change directory with “cd sql_reference”, I do that, but I get an error message saying I need to use the mkdir command again. It’s like the tutorial gets 1 step stucked behind.

Here’s a SS of what I can see from my side:

You have a typo in your first mkdir command so you made a different folder.

You’re right, I didn’t see that. I’ll keep that in mind to check in the future. Thank you for pointing that out!

I ended up deleting the progress from my dashboard so I’m now back on track and not errors so far.

Thanks again!
