MyGit directory created

Question

What is the "MyGit" directory that is created by Visual Studio from time to time in my project directory? Is that a bug in VS 2015 CTP 6 or has that already been in previous versions? It only happens in a solution that's under Git version control
using VS' built-in Git provider. The directory name starts with "MyGit", followed by a random GUID. They contain an empty base Git repository each. I just delete those directories when I see them, but they keep coming back. This is not the Git repository
my project is stored in, that's in .git.

Hi LonelyPixel,
>>I don't know what VSO is, and I'm not using TFS. I'm using Git and only with a local repository. Nothing anywhere remote.
Like this document here:

You can use Visual Studio and Git to collaborate with your team using Team Foundation Server (on-premises or on
Visual Studio Online), on
CodePlex, or on a third-party service such as GitHub or Bitbucket.
Do you mean that you didn't use the VSO or the TFS or the third party service?
Do you mean that you just use the VS2015 CTP 6 in your local machine? Whether it is related to this document(it is about the VS2013)?

Since this forum is to discuss:
Visual Studio WPF/SL Designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System, and Visual Studio Editor.
To really repro/understand this issue, could you share us the detailed steps? It would be better if you could share us screen shots about the real results in your side?
Best Regards,
Jack
