failed to update LuaSnip via Lazy.nvim

[hopezh]

I got the following error and failed to update LuaSnip inside my LazyVim config.

May I ask if what it means, and how to fix this issue?

Thanks.

        You can also press `x` to remove the plugin and then `I` to install it again.

add this

{
	"L3MON4D3/LuaSnip",
	-- follow latest release.
	version = "v2.*", -- Replace <CurrentMajor> by the latest released major (first number of latest release)
	-- install jsregexp (optional!).
	build = "make install_jsregexp"
}

then reinstall LuaSnip

Yes, it works. Thank you very much.

Aw man, I thought I'd sorted all of those out.
The latest commit updates the git-submodule that contains jstegexp, seems like something went wrong there.

I'm pretty sure applying the commit worked fine when I tried it on my end, seems like something is different..

[L3MON4D3]

I tried it again, worked fine despite some untracked files in the submodule :/
Not sure what is causing this for you guys, but I'll pin this issue, hopefully not too many others encounter this as well.

Adding a "me too" and noting that I had to run rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim/lazy/LuaSnip to get rid of the errors.

I had this same issue today, seem to have resolved it by uninstalling and reinstalling LuaSnip from within the Lazy UI (x + i), as per comments on #1068

Possibly related, I do have the following in my .gitconfig:

[submodule]
  recurse = true

I was running a pretty old version (v.2.1.1) when I tried to upgrade and hit this issue (this might be useful info?). I tried a few things like trying to reclone/checkout the submodule (specifically jsregexp005) but I'm not well versed on submodules so I was unsuccessful and ended up moving it out of the way and forcing Lazy to reinstall it (which worked fine 🎉).

Just noting that I hit this too, and was able to resolve it thanks to the comments in this thread. All I did was rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim/lazy/LuaSnip and Lazy correctly did it's thing the next time I opened vim. FWIW I don't have recurse in my .gitconfig.

Currently haf this issue today. I have placed the 3 lines correctly for Lazy using the plugin. Worked fine for a while...

Followed rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim/lazy/LuaSnip reopened and it is working again.
Just wanted you to know this problem, whatever it is, still occurs.
