How to update beef?

[pepal00]

Environment

Beef version: '0.4.7.0-alpha'
OS: 4.19.0-kali1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.13-1kali1 (2019-01-03) x86_64 GNU/Linux
(removed Kali beef and installed from repository)

Configuration

I've edited the config.yaml file to change authentication and access controls parameters to fit my needs.

Summary

Because of the above, when trying to git pull or ./update-beef I get the following error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge: config.yaml Please commit your changes or stash them before you merge

This is most likely my lack of knowledge on Git operations, but how do I keep my changes on the config.yaml file AND update beef?

Unfortunately I don't have an easy solution for you, beyond creating a backup of the existing config, or making a backup of only the changes (git diff config.yaml > myoldconfigchanges). Then reset the config.yaml with git checkout config.yaml, updating, and manually re-applying the changes after updating.

Thank you! that did the trick

No worries.

I made a few updates to BeEF the past couple days. They should be available when you update.

Chances are high that I've broken something. If there's any new issues, I can probably get it fixed pretty quick.

Closing this issue.
