[forge-dev] SOLVED: installing plugins on Windows

[Lincoln Baxter, III]

Richard, You are the man :) I cherry-picked your patch (though you might
want to re-clone from master, and force push to your repository, because it
seems your repo is out of sync. Or, you can type:

    git reset HEAD^1 --hard

about 5 times, then

    git pull upstream master

And see if that makes a difference

(you can go back more than 5 times (as many as you need) if needed, but
just guessing.) At some point re-cloning becomes easier because you don't
have to keep typing ;)
