I got this error today in my development laptop. I tried to do a bench update

chris@chris:~/frappe/frappe-bench$ bench update

    raise CommandFailedError(cmd)
bench.utils.CommandFailedError: git pull

Any idea why?

I have solve this problem by changing my repo in bench

[remote "origin"]
        url = https://github.com/frappe/bench
        #fetch = +refs/heads/new-install:refs/remotes/origin/new-install <---- old one
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
[branch "new-install"]
        remote = origin
        #merge = refs/heads/new-install
        merge = refs/heads/master <---- old one

@anand I am using the new installer script for this one. maybe you have the reason removing the new install tag/branch?

I would start by looking in .git/config file for references to that branch, and removing them.
Plus take a look at bench update failed · Issue #5205 · frappe/erpnext · GitHub

@yashodhan yes you are right. I think the problem is the new installer that @anand made the git pointing to new install tag/branch for bench?

Yeah change bench repo’s branch. This was fixed sometime back.
