Unable to setup Cocoapods, pod setup --verbose command failed

I'm trying to install cocoapods on my mac to use for iOS apps. So before finding a cocoapod tutorial, I may have tried to install a cocoapod for an xcode project with pod init and some other random things. I don't think pod init worked but another similar command did something

I then decided it would be a better idea to follow a tutorial from the beginning, so I started with installing cocoapods with the sudo gem install cocoapods, which worked.

However, when I typed pod setup --verbose, terminal threw an error which also happened when I typed pod setup

    /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.3.0/gems/cocoapods-1.5.3/lib/cocoapods/command.rb:118:in `git_version': Failed to extract git version from `git --version` ("xcrun: error: invalid active developer path (/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools), missing xcrun at: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/xcrun\n") (RuntimeError)
    from /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.3.0/gems/cocoapods-1.5.3/lib/cocoapods/command.rb:130:in `verify_minimum_git_version!'
    from /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.3.0/gems/cocoapods-1.5.3/lib/cocoapods/command.rb:49:in `run'
    from /Library/Ruby/Gems/2.3.0/gems/cocoapods-1.5.3/bin/pod:55:in `<top (required)>'
    from /usr/local/bin/pod:22:in `load'
    from /usr/local/bin/pod:22:in `<main>'

Please help, I can't find any answers on stackoverflow or any other website.

Based on the error message you are getting, it seems like you don't have command line tools installed. You need to install that and then go to Xcode -> Preferences -> Locations -> Command Line Tools and confirm you have current Xcode version selected there.
