GitButler fails silently when attempting to add a repository from a network drive on Windows

I noticed this on Windows 11 with WSL2. The repository is in the file system of the Linux VM hosted by WSL.

Steps to replicate on Windows:

  • add a new local repository
  • select the network drive path of the repo (e.g. \\wsl.localhost\Ubuntu\home\butler-repo)

Expected outcome:

  • repo is added

Actual outcome:

  • nothing happens
  • there are no errors in the Tauri DevTools console
  • there are no entries in the GitButler log relevant to this operation
