Flutter SDK 在 MacOS 之后在 Windows 上运行应用程序后路径发生变化

Question

I have been playing around with some flutter basics on Windows then wanted to test it on Mac. I did successfully but when I got back again to windows to work on it again I found out that VSCode changed Flutter SDK path in the whole project. The Flutter SDK path on windows is

C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\sdk\flutter

And on Mac

/Users/USERNAME/Downloads/flutter

When I tried to test it again on Windows after Mac I got so many errors like this

 Error: Error when reading '/Users/USERNAME/Downloads/flutter/packages/flutter/lib/material.dart': The system cannot find the path specified.

I run flutter doctor and got this

When I searched for the path of Flutter SDK on Mac in the project I found this

I searched for dart.flutterSdkPath in the settings and changed the path but that didn't fix this issue

"dart.flutterSdkPath": "C:/Users/USERNAME/Documents/sdk/flutter"

so I had to use search and replace tool to replace the path of Mac to the path of Windows in all of these files. It worked but how can I prevent changing the SDK path in the project every time I switch between Windows and Mac?

All those file that you mentioned should be ignored already on the .gitignore created by the flutter create command. It will be generated automatically when you build your project.

In case you don't have it, here is the default .gitignore file

# Miscellaneous
*.class
*.log
*.pyc
*.swp
.DS_Store
.atom/
.buildlog/
.history
.svn/

# IntelliJ related
*.iml
*.ipr
*.iws
.idea/

# The .vscode folder contains launch configuration and tasks you configure in
# VS Code which you may wish to be included in version control, so this line
# is commented out by default.
#.vscode/

# Flutter/Dart/Pub related
**/doc/api/
**/ios/Flutter/.last_build_id
.dart_tool/
.flutter-plugins
.flutter-plugins-dependencies
.packages
.pub-cache/
.pub/
/build/

# Web related
lib/generated_plugin_registrant.dart

# Symbolication related
app.*.symbols

# Obfuscation related
app.*.map.json

# Android Studio will place build artifacts here
/android/app/debug
/android/app/profile
/android/app/release

After changing the .gitignore files, make sure to run git rm -r --cached. before git add. to ensure Git is tracking the right files.
