The library is not added to the git via the git subtree

I added the GLFV library to the project, through the git subtree, but this warning came out "It looks like either your git installation or yourgit-subtree installation is broken". Several reasons have also been described why this may be:

  • If git --exec-path does not print the correct path to your git install directory, then set the GIT_EXEC_PATH environment variable to the correct directory.

  • Make sure that your git-core \ git-subtree file is either in your PATH or in your git exec path (C: / Program Files / Git / mingw64 / libexec / git-core).

  • You should run git-subtree as git core \ git-subtree, not as git-core \ git-subtree.

I checked the link to the library is correct, the file "git-subtree" is there, why then the error pops up.

It appears the git subtree installation is broken issue is with Git for Windows.

I was able to download an older version from: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/download/v2.31.0.windows.1/Git-2.31.0-64-bit.exe

This fixed the issue for me while we await a fix. There's an issue on Git for Window's GitHub for the git subtree error.

I got the below error:

It looks like either your git installation or your git-subtree installation is broken.

It looks like either your git installation or your git-subtree installation is broken.

Tips:
 - If `git --exec-path` does not print the correct path to
   your git install directory, then set the GIT_EXEC_PATH
   environment variable to the correct directory.
 - Make sure that your `git-core\git-subtree` file is either in your
   PATH or in your git exec path (`C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64/libexec/git-core`).
 - You should run git-subtree as `git core\git-subtree`,
   not as `git-core\git-subtree`.

If you wouldn't mind, please accept this as the answer.
