Angular and OneDrive: unsyncable directory "~" in node_modules\postcss-initial

Question

I'm using angular and the project files are on a local-synced OneDrive directory

OneDrive throws an error, that a directory with name "~" can't be synced

Does anyone else have the same problen?

Answer 1

OneDrive doesn't support syncing a folder called "~".

If you let OneDrive rename it to "_" then the only thing you lose is the functionality of the postcss-initial module ...

https://www.npmjs.com/package/postcss-initial

If you can live without that functionality, then just let OD rename it.

I raised a suggestion to have the folder name changed ...
