Did you change any file on ~/.SpaceVim directory?
The error similar to git error. Maybe running git checkout . on ~/.SpaceVim directory before updating SpaceVim will help.

This error message has already tell you what is going on:

"SpaceVim: Updating failed, The plugin dir is dirty"

you need run git checkout . in ~/.SpaceVim

[CodeMonkeyKevin]

I tried git checkout . and it has no issue but still get this update error.

[wsdjeg]

you can reinstall this plugin which directory is dirty.

I'm getting this error as well. ~/.SpaceVim is clean, and "git checkout ." does not help.

What do you mean by "you can reinstall this plugin which directory is dirty"?

[CodeMonkeyKevin]

Ya, I can't figure out how to clean out the plugin dir as well. I'm still facing this issue.

[wsdjeg]

please use new issue

[pedrogarrett]

I've discovered that if I checkout the "master" branch in the ~/.SpaceVim/ folder, then updating works.

The "dev" branch was what was checked out before. Is being on the "master" branch correct?

[wsdjeg]

yeah， dev branch has been deleted.

Came across this issue also. Suggest running "git status" remove listed files, and then pull.
