CircleCI is failing due to a “Could not find commit” error. ![CIerror](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/circleci/original/3X/5/4/5402fcd01ee441a183ec176669b0ba30ba9baf92.png) I’m genuinely unsure of where to go from here, I’m not seeing many posts anywhere about this. Any help would be appreciated. ---

Odd, someone else is [reporting Git problems here](https://discuss.circleci.com/t/switched-our-template-over-to-2-0-and-getting-git-error-trying-to-pull-remote-ref/20371) - also with GitHub. What sort of checkout are you doing - master, a branch, a specific tag or a hash? ## Edit Cross-posted [to Stack Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49034804/circleci-is-failing-due-to-a-could-not-find-commit-error).
