undefined method `fetch_git_uri' when trying to install

[RogerPodacter]

After running heroku plugins:install git://github.com/hone/heroku_herocutter.git, I see:

/Users/tom/.heroku/plugins/heroku_herocutter/lib/heroku_herocutter.rb:26:in `install': undefined method `fetch_git_uri' for #<Heroku::Command::Plugins:0x1036a36d8 @args=[], @options={}> (NoMethodError)

that's an odd one. are you using RVM? fetch_git_uri is defined on line 102 of heroku_herokucutter.rb

That said, I know that the method isn't getting called. As I can install heroku_herocutter with Ruby 1.9.2 and the latest heroku gem (2.1.4) without getting that error. But when I try to install a herocutter plugin, like:
heroku plugins:install colorize_console
Then I get an error message such as:
"Could not install colorize_console. Please check the URL and try again"

I wonder if Ruby 1.8 picks up on that better than 1.9 does.

No RVM, just plain old Ruby 1.8. Yeah, it's weird; it only started happening when I upgraded to the latest Heroku gem, if that's any help

Not sure. I'm not the owner, but I am trying to fix it for myself. If I get
it working again I'll send a pull request. I'm surprised you didn't run into
issue #4 like others.

I run into #4 when I try installing the plugin with no app specified, and this issue when I specify an app. Weird.

@RogerPodacter did you end up finding a solution?

This may help people here and others that find this thread with a similar problem, I discovered in my version of the heroku command line tool (2.19.2) that the https method to access the git repo doesn't work anymore.

So instead of:
heroku plugins:install https://github.com/heroku/heroku-labs.git

Change it to:
heroku plugins:install git://github.com/heroku/heroku-labs

So probably in the case of this repo, you would install it like this:
heroku plugins:install git://github.com/hone/heroku_herocutter
