This sounds similar to the challenge of storing a git repo in a cloud-synced folder (Dropbox, one drive, etc). You have so little control over the syncing behavior in these systems that they just cause piles of locking errors. The solution I’m trying to this involves using a bare repo in the synced drive that’s used as a remote for a working repo on a separate, unsync’d folder.
