If .git is a file instead of a directory (such as when you are building in a submodule), scikit-build-core will currently crash because a NotADirectoryError is thrown instead of a FileNotFoundError. This PR accounts for the resulting exception (NotADirectoryError) instead of crashing.
Another option instead of hardcoding this list would be to catch the more general
OSError
. However, I did not do that, because I am worried about silently swallowing too broad of a class of exceptions.I wrote a unit test and also tested the fix against the project where I encountered this.
(By the way, this project is very helpful, thank you. The fact that I encountered this issue only a couple of hours after the release of 0.10.0 tells you how often I use it!)
