Haha thanks, like 5 people read that and nobody noticed.

We often pull from a branch on a staging environment to run tests, how would we do that going forward?

Like you used to do? If there is a specific issue you'll have to be more specific :)

Maybe read up on #12889 first tho it has a few pointers already but I'm really not sure which solution is for you because your problem description is too vague

Yup saw that discussion after, got it working by removing --prefer-dist from the composer command. Thanks for all you do on this!

Alright, are you also on GitLab or what's the environment? Could you share the exact error message you got?

I am thinking we may be able to detect the error combined with the presence of --prefer-dist and output a clearer hint in this case, but the more info I have to pinpoint it the more detailed output we can give (without risking to mislead people in a completely different scenario).

Nope this is on Laravel Forge (https://forge.laravel.com). They used to have that as part of their composer command defaults. So I had copied that command around on all my sites lol. Easy to remove. A full error message, if it helps:
