Hello,   Since today I am not able to update PlexConnect using git pull.   git pull Your configuration specifies to merge with the ref 'XML\_templates' from the remote, but no such ref was fetched.   Anyone seeing the same? Do you happen to know what the solution is?     Cheers. ---

There is no more "XML\_templates" branch, it's been deleted and we're now using the "master" branch. I'm no git expert but I think you could just do:- git pull master Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong :) ---

Thanks, I've just deleted the PlexConnect Directory and maintained the Settings.cfg file and executed "git clone [https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect.git](https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect.git)". All is well now ---

Next time you might also want to save the ATVSettings.cfg file, depending on the changes you put into your aTV settings page... ---

you can use: git branch master git checkout master git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/master master git pull 🙂 when you want delete the old branch can use ‘git branch -d XML\_templates’ ---
