Ruby 3.1.2 上的 SSHKit::Runner::ExecuteError

Question

Hi

rails 7.0.3

ruby 3.1.2

both servers (production / staging) and the repository are on my own linux.

manually, i can ssh into production server and ssh from there to the repository server.

git clone from the production machine also does his work (manually, for testing).

i've done a eval "${ssh-agent}" and ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa on the production machine which runs fine but changes nothing

The Problem

cap staging deploy --trace

results in

[...]

Answer 1

Your:

git archive master

command is producing:

fatal: Not a valid object name

This indicates that there's no branch named master . That's likely because either:

• there are no branches at all (yet), or
• the main branch is named main , as most people do now instead of using master .

Check your Git repository to see whether you have any branch names at all (you don't have to have branch names, but practically nobody goes without them except in empty repositories) and if so, what they are.
