Please read the README.

git submodule update --init --recursive

It DOESNT help!

[Rowdster]

Please read the README.

git submodule update --init --recursive

How do we properly "git" this project?

C:\Projects\Terminal-master>git fetch https://github.com/microsoft/Terminal.git
fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

[DHowett-MSFT]

it looks like you downloaded the source by choosing “download ZIP.” That will never work as a git repository.

Please clone the repository using “git clone”.

Another note. The included files have one case while the #include uses a different one.

eg

src/propsheet/precomp.h:#include <wil/Common.h>
src/terminal/adapter/MouseInput.cpp:#include <wil\Common.h>
src/terminal/input/terminalInput.cpp:#include <wil\Common.h>
src/tools/buffersize/main.cpp:#include <wil\Common.h>
src/tools/echokey/main.cpp:#include <wil\Common.h>
src/tools/vtpipeterm/main.cpp:#include <wil\Common.h>

find . -iname common.h
./dep/wil/include/wil/common.h
./dep/wil/tests/common.h

compling worked here after doing:

• git clone
• git submodule update --init --recursive
• open Solution in VC2019
• Restore NuGET Packages to Project

Thus the compiled application don't start....
