Unable to install because a remote branch was renamed or deleted

[RobbyCBennett]

• your problem was from running the official install or uninstall script?
• after installation: ran brew config and brew doctor and included their output with your issue? If you couldn't install: provided your OS version with the output of your issue?

What you were trying to do (and why)

I tried to install using /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

What happened (include command output)

I couldn't install because a remote branch was renamed or deleted.

System and software information:

• Architecture: arm64
• MacOS: 12.2
• zsh: 5.8
• bash: 3.2.57
• git: 2.32.1

Command output

Installing from the API is now the default behaviour!

You can save space and time by running:

brew untap homebrew/core

brew untap homebrew/cask

Updated 1 tap (leoafarias/fvm).

Error: Some taps failed to update!

The following taps can not read their remote branches:

dart-lang/dart

This is happening because the remote branch was renamed or deleted.

Reset taps to point to the correct remote branches by running brew tap --repair

Failed during: /opt/homebrew/bin/brew update --force --quiet

What you expected to happen

I expected the installer to work.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions (by running brew commands)

Install using /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

Homebrew is already installed.

[RobbyCBennett]

It's installed for another user as a ZSH plugin, but it's not installed for the whole system or my user.

> brew
zsh: command not found: brew

> find / -name brew 2>/dev/null

This is running Homebrew. It is installed on your machine. If you need more help: ask in Homebrew/discussions. This is not a bug.
