How to update your bots and keep your changes locally
This can be used to update any of the current bots that are on github.
Starting out, to clone a repository to your computer you'll need a program called Git Extensions.
And that's it. You shouldn't run into many merge conflicts unless you're going ham with modifications, at which point you probably know what you're doing already and are preparing to make PRs.

Try running the installer as admin

That appears to be a very rare occurrence. Either run an elevated cmd prompt to execute it or see if there's an unblock button at the bottom of the properties tab

You're welcome, it's easy once you get the hang of it and can be applied to more than just PoGo bots

Hi, still a littl econfused. So I had the necro bot cloned yesterday afternoon. since then i have made several changes but didint fully get through to your guide. i currenly have two branches (i dont understand what these are) called "master" and "originalitsmine". I do not know how to properly update since i dont want to lose my changes too and rebase says
""D:\Program Files\Git\bin\git.exe" pull --rebase --progress "origin"
You asked to pull from the remote 'origin', but did not specify
a branch. Because this is not the default configured remote
for your current branch, you must specify a branch on the command line.
Done"
can you help? i would like to update to the new necro bot and also keep my changes. added in a few lines in several files here and there so idk if thats even possible.

Could you edit your post and snip out my entire post? lol
To answer your question, always update from master

Could you expand the last picture? Since all i was able to do is overwrite all the changes i did to the code once an update was released.
Pull window does not really show how to not overwrite some of the files, with this rebase stuff
