"Unknown error" / "config value 'autoupdate.enable' was not found" when fetching or pulling

[pbek]

Thank you for your work on this great git tool!

When I try to fetch or pull from git repositories I've opened locally (e.g. I tried https://github.com/pbek/nixcfg or https://github.com/pbek/QOwnNotes/) I get errors like this on my new installation of Gittyup on Linux (NixOS):

[-] Fetch - origin
     Unable to fetch from 'origin' - Unknown error

[-] Fetch - origin
     Unable to fetch from 'origin' - config value 'autoupdate.enable' was not found

I haven't found an autoupdate setting in the setting file of Gittyup (or GitAhead, which I've never used).

I'm not able to pull or fetch from almost any git repository I tried...

[pbek]

When I try to push a commit to an (internal) repository, I got a Unable to push to 'origin' - object not found - no matching loose object for prefix (b936088). Pushing in the terminal or other tools did work...

I only found https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57877090/why-does-gitahead-give-this-error-on-fetch-pull...

Thanks for reporting, I will have a look into it.

Did you use the Flatpak version?

Thanks for reporting, I will have a look into it.

Thank you!

Did you use the Flatpak version?

No, the Nix version under NixOS. Built by this: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-unstable/pkgs/applications/version-management/gittyup/default.nix

[pbek]

@thiagokokada, is this maybe a Nix specific issue?

[Murmele]

@pbek Thanks for the clarification. Can you try once the flatpak version. https://github.com/Murmele/Gittyup/releases You can try with the latest dev version and the latest stable version 1.3.0

[pbek]

I now tried com.github.Murmele.Gittyup (1.3.0) and got for example this error when fetching:

[-] Fetch - origin
     Unable to fetch from 'origin' - object not found - no matching loose object for prefix (5d9d3e2)

[pbek]

It got the same error with the latest dev version. I also got this error:

[-] Fetch - origin
     Unable to fetch from 'origin' - Unknown error

[Murmele]

Can you give me more information?

• Which remotes are configured (Remote -> configure Remote)

[pbek]

They are all ssh... E.g. git@github.com:pbek/QOwnNotes.git.

Thank you for looking into that! I wanted to find a viable FLOSS alternative to the commercial Smartgit, and Gittyup really looked promising, especially since I'm a Qt fanboy! 😅

[pbek]

Are there some Gittyup logs or log output I could provide?

[pbek]

Could it have something to do with my ECDSA-SK ssh key? Sometimes pulls are working...
