Git - Error invalid path
up vote

I have been working for so long on a mac and have committed it looks like a file like this:
C:/Csmart/files/companies/19/migration/CompanyDataEntry.xls
This file does not exist in the repository. My repository was actually located in /Users/Sethuram/Development/Csmart/workspaces/csmart. It looks like I might have somehow checked in a file with the name C:/Csmart/files/companies/19/migration/CompanyDataEntry.xls into my git repo and pushed it.
Now I am trying to clone this repo on my windows box and I get an error like below:
error: Invalid path 'C:/Csmart/files/companies/19/migration/CompanyDataEntry.xls'
I understand its an invalid path. I am not sure how to correct it. I dont have access to my mac anymore to delete and push from there.
On the windows box this file appears as a change I need to commit:
$ git status
# On branch master
# Changes to be committed:
# (use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage)
#
# deleted: C:/Csmart/files/companies/19/migration/CompanyDataEntry.xls
How do I get rid of this error?

You can check out the file to another path, such as to the current directory
git checkout -- <path>/<file>
In your case, it should be
git checkout -- C:/Csmart/files/companies/19/migration/CompanyDataEntry.xls
You can also specify a directory to extract your file
git checkout-index --prefix=destination/path/ C:/Csmart/files/companies/19/migration/CompanyDataEntry.xls
If that does not help, just export all files into a new directory
$ git checkout-index --prefix=git-export-dir/ -a
For more information , refer to the documentation for git checkout-index
