Description

This appears to be the same issue as https://github.com/atom/apm/issues/218 but the solution there seems to be some sort of server work on the part of the admins, so I hope that that magic can be applied to my repo as well. 🙇‍♂️

Steps to Reproduce

1. Server admins did some work a few years ago to rename a package for me (the old version of https://github.com/sirbrillig/linter-mixed-indent is now https://github.com/sirbrillig/mixed-indent-warning-old).
2. I'd like to update the old package to change the repo listed in the package.json (https://github.com/sirbrillig/mixed-indent-warning-old/commit/910015c5eb30e96f8a4d189725d3a164601a25d1).
3. apm publish minor

Expected behavior:

The package to be published.

Actual behavior:

➜  mixed-indent-warning-old git:(master) apm publish minor
Preparing and tagging a new version ✓
Pushing v0.4.0 tag ✓

Having the same issue when trying to use apm publish -t vx.y.z.

I gave up after waiting for more than four months and published my package to a new name.
