Cannot clone on Windows

[saranshkataria]

git clone unable to create file server/mongorestore/data/_Join:mySchedule:_User.bson: Invalid argument

A colon is an invalid character for a Windows file name.

The : in join files can be replaced with _ according to my understanding or according to stack overflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41430355/mongodump-the-filename-directory-name-or-volume-label-syntax-is-incorrect, archive option could be included to create the db dump. There's an issue at https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-13313 which is closed as well that states this has been fixed but I cannot make changes and verify anything since I am unable to clone the repo itself.

@saranshkataria would you mind sending a pull request? Or adding a more detailed description of what needs to be done so that someone else can pick it up?

Have changed the file name and refactored reference in the metadata. Not sure where in the dashboard I should verify if the restore for mySchedule and user have been successfully restored.

The schedule data is empty initially. I think renaming the data in the files may cause an issue with the class names. However, you can test this by stopping the server (the one started by the yarn server) command. Then run the server again. This should pick up your new data, even if it's empty. Test by adding something to your schedule via the app.

If your current solution turns out to be an issue, the stackoverflow alternative of creating a file with the archive option sounds like a good alternative.
