pm2 deploy doesn't get recent updates

[benishak]

PM2 @ 2.0.18

when I deploy new changes, pm2/git doesn't get the recent changes I need to login to the server and pull the changes manually issuing git pull origin mybranch

On bitbucket I can see the my last commit
To fix this problem I had to remvoe the folder and run pm2 deploy .... setup again, but when I do some changes and need to deploy them, it stucks in same commit which was at the time pm2 cloned the git repo

Is it pm2 or git issue?
if it is issue with git, why when I login to server and go to the directory where my project located and type git pull ... it gets the recents updates but when I type pm2 deploy env on my local machine, pm2/git doesn't pull the new commits

I fixed this issue by updating git to latest version on the remote server. I don't know why this happened before this never happened before even using the same version of git. but updating git fixed the issue .... I'm using CentOS and had to install IUS Packages to get git 2.10.x. CentOS only come with old release and latest was version 1.8.x

I have same problem with git 1.8.x on Centos 7. Installing from sources git 2.0.5 helped me.

Might come from the fact that we spawn git command here and it might doest work with older version. Sadly i dont think we will support it one day.
