Heroku - Unexpected flag --http-git


#1

Under the section “Creating Your App on Heroku” I am experiencing an issue where when I type into the command line “heroku create --http-git”, it returns an error stating that the command is an unexpected flag.

▸ Error: Unexpected flag --http-git
▸ Usage: heroku create [APP]

▸ This flag is invalid for this command. Here are the accepted flags:
▸ --addons ADDONS # comma-delimited list of addons to install
▸ -b, --buildpack BUILDPACK # buildpack url to use for this app
▸ -n, --no-remote # do not create a git remote
▸ -r, --remote REMOTE # the git remote to create, default "heroku"
▸ -s, --stack STACK # the stack to create the app on
▸ --space SPACE # the private space to create the app in
▸ --region REGION # specify region for the app to run in
▸ --ssh-git # use SSH git protocol for local git remote
▸ -o, --org ORG # organization to use

▸ See more information with heroku create --help

I made sure that everything installed up to this point was correct and that I was signed into Heroku via my command line. Not sure if this will help but I’ve also included my pip freeze below. Please let me know if you have any suggestions for resolving this and thank you in advance!!

Nevermind. I just changed the name not using the hyphens at the beginning and it seemed to work.
