`danger local` git diff error

Hi,

When running danger local --dangerfile dangerfile.js I am getting:

Could not get diff from git between master and HEAD
{ Error: stdout maxBuffer exceeded
    at Socket.onChildStdout (child_process.js:325:14)
    at Socket.emit (events.js:160:13)
    at addChunk (_stream_readable.js:269:12)
    at readableAddChunk (_stream_readable.js:252:13)
    at Socket.Readable.push (_stream_readable.js:213:10)
    at Pipe.onread (net.js:599:20) cmd: 'git diff master...HEAD' }

For branch structure:

master -> develop -> build/danger

Then yeah, that’s what you’ll need to set up - master in that repo needs to represent the before, and the current branch as the merged master

Yeah, just did that. Fetching itself didn’t create a local ref for master. Needed to run: git fetch origin master:master. That :master sets the local ref.

However, we are using develop branch as the primary branch, not master. Does anyone know how to resolve the issue?

There is a --base option for danger local. You can use that to provide the base branch
