Cloning failed the URN ... does not exist

[pcarranzav]

Hi folks. I just set up radicle-cli on a new machine (Apple M1 silicon), created a new identity with rad auth, and I'm trying to clone a repo.
This is failing with the following error message:
rad:git:hnrkrhnth6afcc6mnmtokbp4h9575fgrhzbay/refs/remotes/hyb4kgpdb74pxocdy7qjekgy78ij46mhuuiftmxau3hqbzxtwjsg9s/rad/self does not exist

Full logs below:

I'm struggling to understand the logs, so not sure if it's a problem with my local setup or something else?
If I try to clone the repo in another machine where I already have a copy it works, but I'm not sure if the CLI is reusing the other local copy.

Hi @pcarranzav, what version of rad are you running? Try 'rad --version"

[pcarranzav]

Hi @slack-coder! I had 0.6.1 installed from Homebrew. I just cloned the repo and built 0.6.1 from source and it failed in the same way. Then I tried building master (0.7.0-dev+954ea8d) and it seems the interface changed so I don't know how to actually clone it (seems to expect a different format for the seed).

Then I tried building v0.6.0, v0.5.1 and v0.5.0: all failed to clone in the same way.

[pcarranzav]

I tried cloning a different repo (rad://pine.radicle.garden/hnrkf1jaje1e93rua64zgphg7zb14qo9zexgy) and it worked, so I guess it must be something wrong with that particular project?

[slack-coder]

Yes, the project appears malformatted for radicle. Radicle expects to have the 'rad/self' branch internally set up but it is missing.
