Hi,

I'm referring the article to config git :

https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS267770

I've followed the last section "Updating ThingWorx with Import of a Project from Git" to config the clean and smudge, but run git add / git status report the error below, the replace command doesn't work.

sed: no input files

I contacted Sean and the issue was resolved with the below suggestion:

git config filter.thingworx.clean "sed -e 's/lastModifiedDate=\".*$/lastModifiedDate=\"\"/g'"
