Sure, here you go:

Thanks for confirming! Hope you find what’s causing this.
@prandelicious We managed to find the issue and we’ve released Ghost-CLI 1.15.2 with a fix. You should be able to run npm install -g ghost-cli@latest and then everything should operate as normal.
Thanks for the bug report - we really appreciate it!
Works now! Amazing how you were able to fix it in such a short time!
