Why does Git disconnect from my MATLAB Drive repository?

I am using Git to connect a local repository located in my MATLAB Drive folder in MATLAB R2025b to a remote repository in GitHub. Around one week after I connect my MATLAB Drive repository to Git, it disconnects from Git and I am unable to push changes to my GitHub repository.

Why does this disconnection occur, and how can I resolve this?

Using MATLAB Drive and Git together is not recommended. Because there will be two source control processes managing the same files, each process may take out locks on files and block the other from accessing them. This can cause the tools to stop functioning correctly.

To resolve this, consider cloning your Git repository to a local drive rather than MATLAB Drive.
