I recently upgraded to version 1.3 (and updated everything else subsequently).  When I try to run Autopkgr, I get an error saying some recipes are not working, I tried to refresh the Repos, but the error persisted (ERROR: git execution failed with error code 2: No such file or directory ) 

I went to check the directories where I have the repos configured:

/Volumes/Files/AutoPkgr/Cache
/Volumes/Files/AutoPkgr/RecipeRepos
/Volumes/Files/AutoPkgr/RecipeOverrides

I went ahead and deleted the contents of the folders, to try and download them again.  I closed Autopkgr and re-launched.  If I update the repos, I get the same error as above.  If I try to un-check the repos to reseat them, I get this other error: ERROR: Could not remove /Volumes/Files/autopkg/RecipeRepos/com.github.autopkg.recipes: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Volumes/Files/autopkg/RecipeRepos/com.github.autopkg.recipes'

I understand what the error is, but what I would like is to reset AutoPkgr completely.  Is there any way to do that?

Thanks!

GP.

Hey Gilbert,

I think you should be able to recover by quitting AutoPkgr, then removing a few AutoPkg defaults

```

defaults delete com.github.autopkg RECIPE_REPOS

defaults delete com.github.autopkg RECIPE_SEARCH_DIRS

```

If that doesn't work you can go one step further and wipe the whole preference
```

defaults delete com.github.autopkg

```

Relaunch AutoPkgr, re-add the repos.

I had another set of errors after I was able to make the new pull:

Hi Gilbert,

Sounds like you need to uncheck the "Ignore ownership on this volume" option for the volume Files. This error is coming from AutoPkg, not AutoPkgr:
