Thank you for filing this issue.

The error you reported

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

is not conclusive without more context. Can you please describe what you did when this error occurred? Did you start aider inside a git repository folder?

Thank you.

Thanks for trying aider and filing this issue.

The fix is available in the main branch. You can get it by installing the latest version from github:

aider --install-main-branch

# or...

python -m pip install --upgrade git+https://github.com/paul-gauthier/aider.git
