never edit them, use the config.js to change the config.

git diff > somefile

will show u the changes into somefile

u can erase the package-lock.json file

@lavolp3 interesting, my script tries to minimize space used, so only downloads the master branch
to down develop do

git fetch origin develop:develop
git checkout develop

I am probably doing something wrong.

I typed in “git fetch origin develop:develop” and then “git checkout develop” and got an error.

git checkout develop
error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by checkout:
	modules/default/clock/clock.js
	modules/default/weatherforecast/weatherforecast.js
	package-lock.json
Please commit your changes or stash them before you switch branches.

config in config.js and css in custom.css

Very good point in regard to ‘‘how you update the code if you don’t know to create custom.css?’’- I previouly edited the config.js, clock.js and clock_styles.css > I created a really pretty analog clock with the centre, second hand, minute and hour each with different colours.

3. For some reason I thought that a custom.css was really technical but I easily created this from my terminal.

For what it’s worth, I’ve connected to a few APIs and have configued these in the main confg folder and the css’s.

Going forward I’m going to play with customising the default modules (well the ones which I haven’t hidden in the main config file) in the custom CSS.

Thanks again Xx

1. I have updated the code (still not working presumably because of point 3 below)
2. I don’t know where to download the old SVG faces - when I installed MM there was/is a folder full of SVG clock faces
3. Please don’t laugh - I don’t know how to create/use a custom css folder - I plan to learn this soon! X

.clockCircle {
margin: 0 auto;
position: relative;
border-radius: 50%;
background-size: 100%;
background: transparent /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/default/clock/faces(“faces/face-005.svg”) center no-repeat;
}

In this context, is url an actual url or my fie path? x

git checkout develop

that works. thanks.

git fetch origin develop:develop
git checkout develop

git fetch origin
git branch -a

do not show the develop branch on remote

git checkout -b develop origin/develop gives a fatal error:

fatal: Cannot update paths and switch to branch 'develop' at the same time.
Did you intend to checkout 'origin/develop' which can not be resolved as commit?

Haven’t seen this before.

@sdetweil have not used your install script

git checkout develop && git pull

I got error

pi@MM:~/MagicMirror $ git checkout develop
error: pathspec 'develop' did not match any file(s) known to git
pi@MM:~/MagicMirror $
pi@MM:~/MagicMirror $ git pull

pi@MM:~/MagicMirror $ git status

What should I do next ?

Thanks
