Bower update failing

[egucciar]

Hi,

This morning attempted to do bower update and got the following error:

bower crossroads#~0.12.2 ECMDERR Failed to execute "git ls-remote --tags --heads https://github.com/mi
llermedeiros/crossroads.js.git", exit code of #128 fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/millermedeiros/crossroads
.js.git/': transfer closed with outstanding read data remaining

Additional error details:
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/millermedeiros/crossroads.js.git/': transfer closed with outstanding read da
ta remaining

Please advise.

Thanks,
Erica

I'm getting this too, for a number of different project, but not all of them, so I think this is a github wobble.

1. git ls-remote --tags --heads https://github.com/js-cookie/js-cookie.git
2. git ls-remote --tags https://github.com/carhartl/jquery-cookie.git

but some work fine

1. git ls-remote --tags --heads https://github.com/jashkenas/backbone.git

I did a temp workaround by forking the repo and having my bower point to my fork instead.

So this seems to be an issue with bower itself, not the repo? Or maybe github?
