cannot fork() for git-remote-https: Resource temporarily unavailable

[acandael]

When I try to install laptop, I get this error message when installing Homebrew:

==> Downloading and installing Homebrew...
error: cannot fork() for git-remote-https: Resource temporarily unavailable
Failed during: git fetch origin master:refs/remotes/origin/master --tags --force
failed

I'm trying to install the script on MacOs High Sierra

thanks for your help,

Anthony

after installing Homebrew manually the laptop script seemed to run fine. The only thing I'm missing though is the 'tat' command to startup a tmux session.

I'm going to close this, since it has been a couple years and it never got a response. 😢

The fork() system call failing might have been an indication that there were too many processes running. Rebooting might have helped. I don't think there is much we could have done within the laptop script to fix that. If I am wrong about that, we can reopen this issue.
