Cloning and Installing remote repository changes into local system
Please anyone can help me to clone and install a remote repository into my local system.
I am good at cloning and pulling changes from remote repository.
But while I am trying to install that apps into my site , I am getting errors.
please help me to fix this.
Hello @Kiranmai,
To get any app, use the following command:
bench get-app --branch git-branch git_app_path
// Example
bench get-app --branch version-15 https://github.com/frappe/erpnext.git
For app installation on a specific site, use:
bench --site your_sitename.com install-app erpnext
To update the erpnext app, navigate to the app directory and execute:
git pull upstream version-15
Ensure that you set the version as per the app requirements.
Here are some references for your guidance:
I hope this information proves helpful.
Thank You!
@NCP
I need install app which is cloned from a remote repository.
Example :
-
Cloning that repo into our local sytem.
—> git clone GitHub - amreenfatim/Hilltop -
cd Hilltop/
-
git fetch
-
git merge origin/main
-
git pull origin main
-
bench update --pull
-
bench --site hilltop install-app hilltop
These are the steps followed to clone and install app from remote repository.
But iam getting error at 7 .
That error is : ` bench --site hilltop install-app Hilltop
Could not find app “Hilltop”:

Hi @Kiranmai,
Please avoid cloning the application.
If you wish to clone the application, use the “get-app” command.
bench get-app --branch main https://github.com/amreenfatim/Hilltop.git
This works in a way similar to a clone.
Please again check the documentation.
Thank You!
@NCP I tried that one also.
But no use.
The process i mentioned above is working sometimes.
By using that process i cloned another repository.
But now it is not working. 
After Some Research I Just Saw That Your Repository project,toml needs some fix
Please Accept The Changes Then Use @NCP Instructions.
I Hope it helps.
