Linux compatibility issues?

[Pilvinen]

This strange file appears in my project folder, it always has the same name:

It looks like some kind of Windows path thing or something? I'm on Ubuntu Linux and there's this:

CSC : warning AD0001: Analyzer 'GitInfo.SponsorLinker' threw an exception of type 'System.UnauthorizedAccessException' with message 'Access to the path '/usr/share/dotnet/sdk/7.0.306/Roslyn/bincore/%TEMP%\1M5Ot' is denied.'.

Now, the problem is that having that "%TEMP%\1M5Ot" folder in my project root is preventing Rider IDE from building and running my project - for some reason.

Build output:

I have no idea what any of this is or what it means, but all fingers are pointing at GitInfo.

I'm using GitInfo 3.1.1. So next I noticed there's an update available, 3.1.2. Maybe that fixed my problem? So, I hit the upgrade button, but alas:

Again, no idea what is going on. I've never had a NuGet package fail on me this hard before.

I don't know what to do short of removing GitInfo from my project.

This is likely caused by the inclusion of the SponsorLink nuget package. The same was happening for users of Moq: https://github.com/moq/moq/issues/1371

Please be aware, that sponsor link will send hashed mail addresses of your git configuration to the authors servers without your consent.

I found a workaround to the issue:

    // private static string GetMajorVersion() => ThisAssembly.Git.SemVer.Major;
    // private static string GetMinorVersion() => ThisAssembly.Git.SemVer.Minor;
    // private static string GetPatchVersion() => ThisAssembly.Git.SemVer.Patch;
    // private static string GetCommitVersion() => ThisAssembly.Git.Commit;
    // private static string GetCommitDate() => ThisAssembly.Git.CommitDate;

    private static string GetMajorVersion() => "0";
    private static string GetMinorVersion() => "0";
    private static string GetPatchVersion() => "0";
    private static string GetCommitVersion() => "0";
    private static string GetCommitDate() => "0";

Plus uninstall GitInfo.

But I suppose since GitInfo is MIT licensed forking GitInfo and removing SponsorLink would also work. 🤔

Sorry for taking so long to reply here. The dependency is gone and the issue should likewise.
