Steps to reproduce

Followed the setup steps from this setup guide for React Native CLI Quickstart > macOS > iOS
Run npx react-native init projectName
“Installing Cocoapods dependencies” fails
cd into the project directory and then the ios folder and running pod install --verbose produces additional logs, but still fails on the glog step.

     You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
     changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
     state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.
     
     If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
     do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example:
     
       git switch -c <new-branch-name>
     
     Or undo this operation with:
     
       git switch -
     
     Turn off this advice by setting config variable advice.detachedHead to false

Debugging this issue on my M1 mac, I discovered that I had ~~never set my git config to use the correct line endings for *nix on macOS.~~ UPDATE: I had actually forgotten to unset them after working with a repo with Windows line endings. This means they were set to git config --global core.autocrlf true which is the setting for windows.

This is the correct setting for linux/mac.

git config --global core.autocrlf input

You can also unset them and use the default which is false

git config --global --unset core.autocrlf

After this, you will need to normalize all the line endings in the project (unless you want to re-clone).

https://stackoverflow.com/a/13154031

After you have done the configuration, you might want git to normalize all the files in the repo. To do this, go to to the root of your repo and run these commands:

git rm --cached -rf .
git diff --cached --name-only -z | xargs -n 50 -0 git add -f

If you now want git to also normalize the files in your working directory, run these commands:

git ls-files -z | xargs -0 rm
git checkout .

There are some .bat files for windows that you will not want to change, so discard those.

Once you have done these steps, you shouldn’t need any of the custom workarounds in this thread.

Was stuck on this issue for a long time as well…

My understanding is that for whatever reason, the version of glog that is being pulled in has incorrect file endings.

There is probably a cleaner solution, but the way I fixed this is by going into the file which downloads and installs glog: node_modules/react-native/scripts/ios-configure-glog.sh and added lines 40,41,42,43 below:

 39 EOF
 40     sed -i -e 's/\r$//' config.sub
 41     sed -i -e 's/\r$//' configure
 42     sed -i -e 's/\r$//' missing
 43     sed -i -e 's/\r$//' config.guess
 44     patch -p1 config.sub fix_glog_0.3.5_apple_silicon.patch
 45 fi

Actually, just doing this command (finally!) fixed the issue for me :

git config --global core.autocrlf input

Even though the project was not under a git managed folder

Thank you, worked on my Mac M1 Pro!

This worked for me : sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app Then restart your terminal (If you have to agree Xcode new condition agree to it) npx pod-install or bundle exe pod-install --repo-update or cd ios && pod install

Polyrion on Sep 24, 2023

I started to have this issue too on my Intel macbook pro. But on my M1 Macmini have no issue doing pod install.

When i added the temp hack on the ios-configure-glog.sh it works and pod install finished.

But like mentioned in previous common from other user, the app cannot be built it causes some other errors. I had to copy the glog folder from my m1 mac mini and everything works.

I just have to remember to do the same setup if i ever need to rebuild from fresh repo or do pod install. At least i can continue working on the javascript part.
