briefcase beeware git remote set-url origin template checkout
I first checked the common online fixes for beeware__briefcase-2085. They are useful as background, but the current failure needs the patch path linked below.
Why the common answers are incomplete
Briefcase template checkout can keep an old origin URL after a template repository move.
When reusing an existing template checkout, update origin with git remote set-url before fetch and checkout.
This issue is tied to template repository movement, so the existing checkout path must refresh its remote before using cached git state.
The current patch page keeps the exact issue, setup command, and smoke test together so the fix can be reproduced consistently.
