Git bash stuck on 'Is this okay? (yes)'


Every time I do npm init and hit enter until the question 'Is this okay? (yes)' pops out on which I answer 'yes', Git Bash gets stuck. This means that I can write anything, hit enter and all I get is a newline. By the way, a new package.json file is created in my dir. Also, everything works fine if I use the Windows cmd, and not Git Bash.

How do you confirm the question in Git Bash?


Solution

  • This is likely to be a compatibility issue with npm and git-bash

    You can just terminate the process with Ctrl + C and you will see the package.json being created or else run the init command like

    npm init -y
