Git error: merge not found



  • Apprently there is a bug with the version of git for openWRT, which affects the onion.

    When doing a git pull on a already cloned depository I get the following

    root@Omega-13E3:/usr/share/htdocs/api# git pull
    /usr/lib/git-core/git-pull: exec: line 1: git-merge: not found

    After doing a "find / -name 'git-core' it is reveiled that git is placed both in
    /overlay/upper/usr/lib/git-core
    /usr/lib/git-core

    Following what was written on this post https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/11930 I mananged to fix the problem

    The following command fixes it: "ln -s $(which git) /usr/lib/git-core/git"
    As far as i get tell. This creates a symlink from the core lib to where git is called or something like that. Anyways it fixes the problem with merging and pushing



  • Is there any way for onion team to automatically check for instances of conflicting versions between overlay-fs installed packages and those already installed to the root flashed image? Or, am I altogether mixed up in my mental model such that seeing two 'git-core' entries from your find command is a misnomer?
