Hey @Pakillo

could you please try the latest commit and test the debug = TRUE option to see the repos that are fetched?

upnews::upnews(debug = TRUE)
debug:
                    bifag                   bs2site                     callr                       cli

surely related to #4

Thanks for looking into it @ginolhac .

This is my output. Maybe some pkg here doesn't even exist anymore...

thanks! indeed you have Pakillo/rSDM/2ca5a85 as I told you on twitter, I realized that the ref becomes the commit sha1. And that messes up quite a few things. I need to figure out how to fetch the branch name from a commit sha1, but using the github API. Works fine with git

$ git name-rev --name-only d490355
master~1

I will let you know when it is working, also I found some other mistakes that deserve a fix too. Thanks again for your interest in my little project ;) much appreciated

[ginolhac]

I think that should work now, commit as ref as check for their branch of origin as described here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/23970412/1395352

could you please give a try?

[ginolhac]

pretty sure this is fixed now, closing
