Got the same issue to upgrading from 0.39.2 to 0.40.0

I got the same problem, this worked for me:

Edit ~/.gitconfig and change

[color]
	ui = always

to

[color]
	ui = auto

I figured this out by manually trying to git apply the patch-file in the folder printed at the end of react-native-git-upgrade --verbose (you have to use --verbose for this folder to be printed). This patch-file was color-coded because I had ui = always, and this was the reason git printed fatal: unrecognized input.

Getting the same error:

git-upgrade info Commit new version template

git-upgrade info Save the patch in temp directory
git-upgrade info Reset the 2 temporary commits

git-upgrade info Upgrade done

~and it resets to the project snapshot~ it updates and has some files in conflict which I can resolve. Thing is, we have changed a lot of stuff in platform specific project files so I can understand updating RN would be difficult for a tool which checks for manual changes and doesn’t want to overwrite them… (for example: we’ve created new folders for the iOS xcode project which uses a new name… not sure if it updated in that folder. I will check when I have more time at hand)

@vinceprofeta I have delete the android and iOS folder. I run react-native init and react-native link to recreate these folder. It fix the issue for me 😄

I run 0.2.7 and got the same error:

I found what was the issue for me. I had updated and installed the new react package I was looking for. I started again from scratch (just making sure that I was using "react-native-git-upgrade": "0.2.7") and it worked nicely.

Unrelated to changing bundleID, i get this when upgrading to 0.40
