Update got me cannot lock ref
-
Got this error message when trying to update, I tried some Google suggestions but none worked. Any suggestions?
pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ git pull && npm install error: cannot lock ref 'refs/tags/v2.13.0': unable to resolve reference 'refs/tags/v2.13.0': reference broken From https://github.com/MichMich/MagicMirror !

@sweup ok
cd ~/MagicMirror rm .git/refs/tags/v2.13.0 rm .git/refs/tags/v2.14.0 then the purge refs command again -
Thanks! I had to make a git stash but then it worked out.
Unrelated - is it “safe” to update Node.js and do a sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade of the Rpi, or could I expect issues? Sorry for noob Qs
