I am using a macbook and have ruby installed on my machine. I want to install a ruby gem, but want to update HomeBrew first. I ran’brew update’ in my home folder and got this error:
error: The following untracked working tree files would be overwritten by merge:
Library/Formula/vcprompt.rb
Please move or remove them before you can merge.
Aborting
Error: Failure while executing: git pull -q origin refs/heads/master :refs/remotes/origin/master
I tried to enter the library/formula folder, but it does not exist on my machine. I don’t know what to do from here.
cd / usr / local&& git reset – hardware FETCH_HEAD
Or if it fails
cd / usr / local&& sudo git reset –hard FETCH_HEAD
