We use caddy-server and caddy-git plugin to host our websites.
When our deploy branch changed in our github repo from gh-pages to deploy-master we noticed that caddy-git was unable to update a site when the config change indicated a change in branch name.
The core problem was that the deployed repo folder was missing the branch from the remote origin
Solution
In the event of a failure to update a branch this PR adds a case and validates if the update failed due to a change in branch name and if so we fetch the remote and try to switch the branch to the config.
This would ensure the caddy service would not break.
