          @yon-0 I recieved this same error.

          The fix for me was still turning off automatic update check for Dashboard page.
          System --> Update --> Update Settings
          then checking below
          Dashboard check [checked to disable] Disable the Dashboard auto-update check

                    You tried resaving the repo branch as shown here?:

                                  It's in the system infomation widget on the dashboard or above the menu at the console. Or shown by running gnid at the CLI.
