I am attempting to update my git repo by doing "git add ." within Visual Studio Code on my MAC. I have done this many times without issues but this time it is giving me this error "error: file write error: No space left on device" and "error: unable to create temporary file: No space left on device." Also when trying to clone another repo onto my device from github it says "fatal: could not create work tree dir 'cs1550-project1-domm2': No space left on device" I have 12.96gb left of 256gb. I do not know how I am out of space or how to free it. I just need to update my github repo for class.
This is running df -h within the VS terminal:

CodePudding user response：
It depends on where you are trying to do the git add .
As mentioned here:
The /snap mounts come from using software packages installed with Snap.
These utilize loop devices and are usually not writable.
You will get some sort of "No space on device" error when trying to write to any of these locations and that is represented in
df -has showing those mounts as 100% in use.
But in your case, assuming the repository is in /dev/...:
devfs 392 392 0 100% 679 0 100% /dev
That means you don't have enough inodes.
Look for files to delete:
for x in /* ; do echo $x ; find $x | wc -l ; done
The goal is to free inode usage or increase the number of inodes.
