Problem installing via cocoapods (fatal: No names found, cannot describe anything)

Closed this issue · 5 comments

Hey,

When attempting to install via cocoapods, I'm encountering the following error:

Updating local specs repositories
Analyzing dependencies
Pre-downloading: `Regex` from `https://github.com/sharplet/Regex.git`
fatal: No names found, cannot describe anything.
[!] Unable to satisfy the following requirements:

I'm kind of new to ios programming -any idea what could be going wrong?

Huh, that's really strange. Would you mind running pod install --verbose and posting the output?

Sure, here it is:

pod install --verbose

Ok, so it looks like this is the problem:

Here's a workaround:

pod "Regex", git: "https://github.com/sharplet/Regex.git", tag: "v0.2.2"

I'll update the README accordingly.

Works great -thanks for the project and the quick turnaround!

You're welcome!
