fatal: couldn't find remote ref main
[advancew@sjc02 zws_framework_2]$ git branch -vv

@davy_yg So check your remote git remote -v

origin .git/ (fetch)
origin .git/ (push)
[advancew@sjc02 zws_framework_2]$ git pull origin main

@davy_yg So you don't have a remote? git remote set-url origin git@yourgitrepourl:yourrepo
Perhaps check on a computer where it works.

@davy_yg So get the correct one from gitlab. I am sure there it tells you the clone command somewhere, and there you can see the repo url
