cd /home/frappe/.bench
git reset --hard
git pull

If you still get insufficient permission error, try running sudo git pull instead.

Also check that you haven’t previously run bench update as root as this will mean parts of frappe-bench are owned by root and then can’t be written to afterwards as frappe user
