I'm trying to take a stab at a new site using Hugo, and I am stuck during installation. I've installed Homebrew and when running the version, I get the following:
~ % brew --version
Homebrew 2.7.2
Homebrew/homebrew-core (no git repository)
Homebrew/homebrew-cask (git revision b96680c; last commit 2021-01-07)
And when I run brew install hugo
I get the following:
~ % brew install hugo
fatal: Could not resolve HEAD to a revision
==> Searching for similarly named formulae...
Error: No similarly named formulae found.
Error: No available formula or cask with the name "hugo".
==> Searching for a previously deleted formula (in the last month)...
Error: No previously deleted formula found.
==> Searching taps on GitHub...
Error: No formulae found in taps.
What am I doing wrong? This is the first time working in home-brew.
Edit: when running brew install --verbose Hugo
, I get the following warnings:
% brew install --verbose hugo
fatal: Could not resolve HEAD to a revision
==> Searching for similarly named formulae...
Error: No similarly named formulae found.
Error: No available formula or cask with the name "hugo".
==> Searching for a previously deleted formula (in the last month)...

Use
git -C $(brew --repository homebrew/core) checkout master
or
git -C $(brew --repository homebrew/core) reset --hard HEAD
As illustrated by this thread, this might be related to brew
itself, not so much hugo
.
brew install --verbose hugo
This should give you more and allow you to see at which step brew is stuck.
[where the error occurred], I changed into that directory to find that it was empty – all that was in the dir was a
.git/
folder and nothing else.So, to restore the missing contents, I used
git fetch
andgit pull --rebase
.
No available formula or cask with the name "hugo".
That points to a brew configuration issue, since there is a formulae for hugo
Packages are installed according to their formulae, which live in
/usr/local/Homebrew/Library/Taps/homebrew/homebrew-core/Formula
Check that Formula
folder and see if hugo
is missing there.
If not, at least try brew extract hugo
inside a new tap.
brew tap-new gohugoio/hugo
brew extract --version 0.80.0 hugo gohugoio/hugo
brew install gohugoio/hugo/[email protected]
Set your core by running the below two commands
I got the same error. I tried most solutions above. In the end these steps helped:
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/uninstall.sh)"
/usr/local/com.apple.installer.keep
/usr/local/Homebrew
/usr/var/homebrew
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
