Update of Retropie script failed

[mitu]

@spud11 Somehow git detects a change made locally and refuses to merge the changes from the RetroPie repository. From the /home/pi/Retropie-Setup folder, you should execute (either exit ES or use SSH)

git reset --hard

Then try again the update.

@mitu @spud11 It happened to me too and I think it was because of having @zerojay 's Retropie-Extra scriptmodules installed.
But I can't tell for sure if it was a clean install (of Retropie-Extra) or if I had modified some scriptsmodules.

I don't think that's a problem. Most likely there was one of the scriptmodules included in the RetroPie-Setup.

@mitu @hiulit Thanks, mitu. That worked. Yes, in fact, hiulit, I had zerojay's experimental scripts installed as well and wondered whether it had had any effect. Anyway, after doing the reset, I noticed zerojay's scripts are still in setup.

@spud11 Glad to hear that ;)

@skj Exit Emulationstation, then - from the terminal - run the commands

• cd RetroPie-Setup
• git reset --hard
