Error not a valid ref refs remotes origin master

Bug report

Please note we will close your issue without comment if you delete, do not read or do not fill out the issue checklist below and provide ALL the requested information. If you repeatedly fail to use the issue template, we will block you from ever submitting issues to Homebrew again.

• ran brew update and can still reproduce the problem?
• ran brew doctor, fixed all issues and can still reproduce the problem?
• ran brew config and brew doctor and included their output with your issue?

What you were trying to do (and why)

A fresh install of homebrew on OSX.

What happened (include command output)

Installation hangs with the error:

error: Not a valid ref: refs/remotes/origin/master
fatal: ambiguous argument 'refs/remotes/origin/master': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.

brew update hangs the same error, fwiw. Unsurprising since it appears that /usr/local/bin/brew update --force --quiet appears to be the spot where the installed hangs.

Running brew

brew complains about absence of “Command Line Tools”

You need to have the Xcode Command Line Utilities installed (and updated): run xcode-select --install in the terminal.

Ruby: bad interpreter: /usr/bin/ruby^M: no such file or directory

You cloned with git, and your Git configuration is set to use Windows line endings. See this page on configuring Git to handle line endings.

Ruby: bad interpreter: /usr/bin/ruby

You don’t have a /usr/bin/ruby or it is not executable. It’s not recommended to let this persist; you’d be surprised how many .apps, tools and scripts expect your macOS-provided files and directories to be unmodified since macOS was installed.

brew update complains about untracked working tree files

After running brew update, you receive a Git error warning about untracked files or local changes that would be overwritten by a checkout or merge, followed by a list of files inside your Homebrew installation.

This is caused by an old bug in in the update code that has long since been fixed. However, the nature of the bug requires that you do the following:

cd "$(brew --repository)"
git reset --hard FETCH_HEAD

If brew doctor still complains about uncommitted modifications, also run this command:

cd "$(brew --repository)/Library"
git clean -fd

launchctl refuses to load launchd plist files

When trying to load a plist file with launchctl, you receive an error that resembles either:

Bug: launchctl.c:2325 (23930):13: (dbfd = open(g_job_overrides_db_path, [...]
launch_msg(): Socket is not connected

or:

Could not open job overrides database at: /private/var/db/launchd.db/com.apple.launchd/overrides.plist: 13: Permission denied
launch_msg(): Socket is not connected

These are likely due to one of four issues:

1. You are using iTerm. The solution is to use Terminal.app when interacting with launchctl.
2. You are using a terminal multiplexer such as tmux or screen. You should interact with launchctl from a separate Terminal.app shell.
3. You are attempting to run launchctl while logged in remotely. You should enable screen sharing on the remote machine and issue the command using Terminal.app running on that machine.
4. You are su‘ed as a different user.

brew upgrade errors out

When running brew upgrade, you see something like this:

Error: undefined method `include?' for nil:NilClass

This happens because an old version of the upgrade command is hanging around for some reason. The fix:

cd "$(brew --repository)/Library/Contributions/examples"
git clean -n # if this doesn't list anything that you want to keep, then
git clean -f # this will remove untracked files

Installation fails with “unknown revision or path not in the working tree”

When installing Homebrew, if the initial download fails with something like:

error: Not a valid ref: refs/remotes/origin/master
fatal: ambiguous argument 'refs/remotes/origin/master': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'

or:

fatal: the remote end hung up unexpectedly
fatal: early EOF
fatal: index-pack failed

This is an issue in the connection between your machine and GitHub, rather than a bug in Homebrew itself. See this discussion topic for a number of solutions others have found, such as using a wired connection or a VPN, or disabling network monitoring tools.

Upgrading macOS

Upgrading macOS can cause errors like the following:

• dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/icu4c/lib/libicui18n.54.dylib
• configure: error: Cannot find libz

Following a macOS upgrade it may be necessary to reinstall the Xcode Command Line Tools and then brew upgrade all installed formulae:

xcode-select --install
brew upgrade

Cask — cURL error

First, let’s tackle a common problem: do you have a .curlrc file? Check with ls -A ~ | grep .curlrc (if you get a result, the file exists). Those are a frequent cause of issues of this nature. Before anything else, remove that file and try again. If it now works, do not open an issue. Incompatible .curlrc configurations must be fixed on your side.

If, however, you do not have a .curlrc or removing it did not work, let’s see if the issue is upstream:

1. Go to the vendor’s website (brew home <cask_name>).
2. Find the download link for the app and click on it.

If the download works

The cask is outdated. Let’s fix it:

1. Look around the app’s website and find out what the latest version is. It may be expressed in the URL used to download it.
2. Take a look at the cask’s version (brew info <cask_name>) and verify it is indeed outdated. If the app’s version is :latest, it means the url itself is outdated. It will need to be changed to the new one.

Help us by submitting a fix. If you get stumped, open an issue explaining your steps so far and where you’re having trouble.

If the download does not work

The issue isn’t in any way related to Homebrew Cask, but with the vendor or your connection.

Start by diagnosing your connection (try to download other casks, or browse around the web). If the problem is with your connection, try a website like Ask Different to ask for advice.

If you’re sure the issue is not with your connection, contact the app’s vendor and let them know their link is down, so they can fix it.

Do not open an issue.

Cask — checksum does not match

First, check if the problem was with your download. Delete the downloaded file (its location will be pointed out in the error message) and try again.

If the problem persists, the cask must be outdated. It’ll likely need a new version, but it’s possible the version has remained the same (this happens occasionally when the vendor updates the app in-place).

1. Go to the vendor’s website (brew home <cask_name>).
2. Find out what the latest version is. It may be expressed in the URL used to download it.
3. Take a look at the cask’s version (brew info <cask_name>) and verify it is indeed outdated. If so, it will need to be updated.

Help us by submitting a fix. If you get stumped, open an issue explaining your steps so far and where you’re having trouble.

Cask — permission denied

In this case, it’s likely your user account has no admin rights and therefore lacks permissions for writing to /Applications, which is the default install location. You can use --appdir to choose where to install your applications.

If --appdir doesn’t fix the issue or you do have write permissions to /Applications, verify you’re the owner of the Caskroom directory by running ls -dl "$(brew --prefix)/Caskroom" and checking the third field. If you are not the owner, fix it with sudo chown -R "$(whoami)" "$(brew --prefix)/Caskroom". If you are, the problem may lie in the app bundle itself.

Some app bundles don’t have certain permissions that are necessary for us to move them to the appropriate location. You may check such permissions with ls -ls '/path/to/application.app'. If you see something like dr-xr-xr-x at the start of the output, that may be the cause. To fix it, we need to change the app bundle’s permission to allow us to move it, and then set it back to what it was (in case the developer set those permissions deliberately). See litecoin.rb for an example of such a cask.

Help us by submitting a fix. If you get stumped, open an issue explaining your steps so far and where you’re having trouble.

Cask — source is not there

First, you need to identify which artifact is not being handled correctly anymore. It’s explicit in the error message: if it says It seems the App source…' then the problem is with the app stanza. This pattern is the same across all artifacts.

Fixing this error is typically easy, and requires only a bit of time on your part. Start by downloading the package for the cask: brew fetch <cask_name>. The last line of output will inform you of the location of the download. Navigate there and manually unpack it. As an example, let’s say the structure inside the archive is as follows:

.
├─ Files/SomeApp.app
├─ Files/script.sh
└─ README.md

Now, if we find this when looking at the cask with brew cat <cask_name>:

(…)
app "SomeApp.app"
(…)

The cask expects SomeApp.app to be in the top directory of the archive (see how it says simply SomeApp.app) but the developer has since moved it to be inside a Files directory. All we have to do is update that line of the cask to follow the new structure: app "Files/SomeApp.app".

Note that occasionally the app’s name changes completely (from SomeApp.app to OtherApp.app, let’s say). In these instances, the filename of the cask itself, as well as its token, must also change. Consult the token reference for complete instructions on the new name.

Help us by submitting a fix. If you get stumped, open an issue explaining your steps so far and where you’re having trouble.

Cask — wrong number of arguments

Make sure the issue really lies with your macOS version. To do so, try to install the software manually. If it is incompatible with your macOS version, it will tell you. In that case, there is nothing we can do to help you install the software, but we can add a depends_on macos: stanza to prevent the cask from being installed on incompatible macOS versions.

Help us by submitting a fix. If you get stumped, open an issue explaining your steps so far and where you’re having trouble.

Other local issues

If your Homebrew installation gets messed up (and fixing the issues found by brew doctor doesn’t solve the problem), reinstalling Homebrew may help to reset to a normal state. To easily reinstall Homebrew, use Homebrew Bundle to automatically restore your installed formulae and casks. To do so, run brew bundle dump, uninstall, reinstall and run brew bundle install.

I need to install brew, as I need pod, to execute «pod install»

However, I am getting stuck for long time, during brew installation.

I have tried

1. Good Internet connection

2. Try VPN

3. Use Google DNS

4. Restart few times

5. No anti-virus

But… it still doesn’t work for me I am getting similar error, and I have no more idea how to proceed

I also check the git. Seem legit

yccheok@Yans-MacBook-Pro ~ % git --version 
git version 2.24.3 (Apple Git-128) 

Have setup email for git

yccheok@Yans-MacBook-Pro ~ % git config --global user.email xxx@gmail.com

2. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39836190/homebrew-install-failed-during-git-fetch-origin-masterrefs-remotes-origin-mas

Any idea what could went wrong? Thanks

Hi,

I have these error while trying to install home-brew and php with the suggestion of Alfred support team.

I had errors when trying to run some workflows and because of this I reached out to Alfred support.

Here are the errors.

Thanks in advance.

home brew;

PHP installation;

I used this command in the terminal: brew install php@7.4

Warning: No available formula with the name «php@7.4».

This is where it all started trying to run a workflow called downmedia. I had the same issue on few other workflows as well.

Thanks !
