error: '~/.cache/nixpkgs-update/worktree/package' is a shallow Git repository

I tried using this tool (via nix shell .. github:ryantm/nixpkgs-update) to update chatgpt-cli:

Encountered the same for a different package (and found my own issue when searching 😅 )

I also have the same problem

I also have the same problem我也有同样的问题

I found the cause of my issue. It was because the nixpkgs repository was cloned using a shallow clone. After switching to a full clone using git fetch --unshallow, the problem was resolved.
