Hi everyone!

I am trying to create a MR with the following command:

glab mr create -s testing -b develop -y -f --fill-commit-body

Both of them exist:

git branch --all

dev-cba
* develop
testing
remotes/origin/dev-cba
remotes/origin/develop
remotes/origin/feature/nuevo-contrato
remotes/origin/feature/nuevo-contrato-adjudicatario
remotes/origin/fix
remotes/origin/rm-orm
remotes/origin/testing
remotes/tfs-gov/dev-cba

But I am getting the following output:

fatal: Unable to find remote helper for 'https'
exit status 128

I have tried by installing libcurl4-openssl-dev as suggested here and reinstalling git using apt:

sudo apt install libcurl4-openssl-dev
sudo apt remove git
sudo apt install git

But I get the same output

fatal: Unable to find remote helper for 'https'
exit status 128

Please feel free to ask any additional information if necessary and thanks in advance! 😌

Hey. This looks like a git issue, but we can try to figure out what is the problem.

Few questions:

  • Are you using HTTPS in protocol for the repo or SSH? You can check this with git remote -v and see if the remotes start with HTTPS or something like git@
  • What kind a protocol have u set for glab? You can see this with glab config get GIT_PROTOCOL or by checking your .config/glab-cli/config.yaml file
  • Can you do a clean clone of the repo using HTTP or does only this command fail?

Also how did you install glab? Did you use snap? There have been some problems with that.

Hi @zemzale! Thanks for answer 😌

Are you using HTTPS in protocol for the repo or SSH? You can check this with git remote -v and see if the remotes start with HTTPS or something like git@

I am using HTTPS

What kind a protocol have u set for glab? You can see this with glab config get GIT_PROTOCOL or by checking your .config/glab-cli/config.yaml file

I have set HTTPS when I ran glab first time

Can you do a clean clone of the repo using HTTP or does only this command fail?

Yes, I use the repo every day to work

Also how did you install glab? Did you use snap? There have been some problems with that.

I installed glab from snap, as described here

I have a suspicion that snap is at fault. I saw a similar issue for gh. You could try to download the precompiled binary and try to use that and see if that fixes the problem.

Hi again! I have done what you suggested and it works, thanks very much!

I have also installed glab using the snap store, and am also running into this issue. Installing the .deb fixed it, so it should maybe be mentioned in the README that the snap can cause issues?
