Permission issues with Sublime Merge on Windows

#1

I am working on a Rails app in windows in WSL and using Sublime Merge for Git management. But I am running int permission issues when I switch branches. More than often, Sublime Merge gives me an error, saying it’s unable to switch because some files can not be overwritten.

So to checkout a branch, I turn to my Ubuntu terminal. Is this something I need to configure? Because right now it is sometimes easier to just stay in the terminal to avoid those issues.

As suggested by the WSL team, I already changed the permissions of my code projects to 777 but that does not help.
