Git cloning LSDTopoTools not compatible with WSL2

[jessezondervan]

When I attempted to install LSDTopoTools2 on my new laptop, I noticed the installation is not yet compatible with WSL version 2.

Git cloning in Ubuntu gives the following error.
WSL 2: chmod on [...]/.git/config.lock failed: Operation not permitted

For me, the quickest way to progress was to revert to WSL version 1, which is no problem. However, if you want to update at some point for compatibility with WSL 2 then this thread may come in handy.
docker/for-win#6284

Best,

Hi Jesse, do you use Ubuntu 20?
If I can't fix the git issue, which seems to have many unresolved stackoverflow threads, I'll add a patch to just install from zip.

Alternatively, you can install using conda:

1. Download and install miniconda
2. $ conda install -c conda-forge lsdtopotools

Hi Siimon, yes I use Ubuntu 20.
Yes, I eventually ended up installing using conda, seems like this is the easiest route.
Thanks!
