dune-release publish distrib use the wrong uri

[Julow]

dune-release publish distrib tries to push the git tag to a made up uri:

[?] Push tag 0.12 to [email protected]:ocaml-ppx/ocamlformat.git? [Y/n]

That uri won't match any key in my config and the push will fail.

Answering n will abort the whole procedure, so I can't push manually and skip this step.

For more context: with my configuration, the correct uri would be gh:ocaml-ppx/ocamlformat. It cannot be guessed because it's not one of my git remotes.

I can think of 2 fixes:

• Check if the tag is already pushed and don't ask me to push it again If git push fail, it asks me to push it manually
• Ask me which url I want to use between that uri, my git remotes and the https uri

This problem can also happen to users that don't use ssh. In that case, the user may (or may not if configured correctly) interact with git push via the terminal (so must not be redirected).

A quick fix for that would be to offer you to skip that step so that you can push the tag yourself and leave the rest to dune-release.

A next step could be to allow local release configurations so that you can tell dune-release where to push and overwrite the default behaviour.

Looks good to me :)

For me dune-release wants to push the tags to git://

Push tag 0.3.0-7-g6ea32f3 to git://github.com/sporto/jwto? [Y/n]

This fails with You can't push to git://github.com/sporto/jwto.git

But my remote is url = [email protected]:sporto/jwto.git

Hmm that one's weird. Thanks for reporting it, we'll look into it!

I think this issue is obsolete. Dune-release still has issues with my URLs, though: https://github.com/tarides/dune-release/issues/479
