Im trying to install a newer version of the bitly-api via GitHub on my heroku server as we have been having issues going from 2.7.15 to 3.6.6 so I added the git+git:https://URLOFGIT.GIT and I seem to be getting the below error. What does it mean?

Do I need to force it to use pip3?

-----> Python app detected
-----> Found python-2.7.15, removing

Below is the correct way of providing GitHub URL in requirements.txt
https://github.com/bitly/bitly-api-python/archive/v0.3.zip

  • I then get an error like this `Cannot unpack file /tmp/pip-hn9iz7hb-unpack/bitly-api-python.git (downloaded from /tmp/pip-uu8dd6k5-build, content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8); cannot detect archive format remote: Cannot determine archive format of /tmp/pip-uu8dd6k5-build remote: !
