Issue when creating my first CocoaPod

Question

I am trying to create my first pod and is following this tutorial: http://www.sitepoint.com/creating-cocoapods/

But when I do:

pod spec lint GLLingoManager.podspec

I get following error:

$ pod spec lint GLLingoManager.podspec

 -> GLLingoManager (0.1.0)
    - ERROR | [OSX] unknown: Encountered an unknown error ([!] /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/git clone https://github.com/xeppen/GLLingoManager.git /var/folders/v6/tdz6zc7j10j_k0pc1vy627zm0000gn/T/d20160504-76297-8l71fj --template= --single-branch --depth 1 --branch 0.1.0

) during validation.

Analyzed 1 podspec.

[!] The spec did not pass validation, due to 1 error.

I dont understand what is wrong. What should I do?

Answer 1

Add a 0.1.0 version for your github repo. Image from Github incase the link dies:

Answer 2

You have pointed to a branch called 0.1.0 in your podspec, and you simply need to push a branch of that name to github. Many people use tags instead of branches to indicate which commit to use for each pod version, and I suggest that you do this instead of pointing to a branch. Please post the source section of your podspec for more specific details.

Answer 3

You can also add a tag to your branch in terminal:

git tag 0.1.0
git push --tags
