 Replying to [comment:3 Tom Forbes]:
 > Hey Keryn,
 > Have you tried removing `resolve()` yourself, and did it fix the issue?

 > I chose to use `resolve()` to try and work around a corner case with
 symlinks, and to generally just normalize the paths to prevent
 duplication.
 >
 > Also, regarding your comment above, you would need to use
 `print(repr(path))`, as I think the print machinery stops at the first
 null byte found (hence just `/Users`, which should never be monitored by
 itself).
 >
 > If you can provide me some more information I'm more than willing to
 look into this, or consider removing the `resolve()` call.

 Hi Tom,

 I am also getting this error, see here for the stackoverflow question
 which I have attempted to answer:

 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/56406965/django-valueerror-embedded-
 null-byte/56685648#56685648

 What is really odd is that it doesn't error every time and looks to error
 on a random file each time. I believe the issue is caused by having a venv
 within the top level directory but might be wrong.

 Bug is on all versions of django >= 2.2.0
