Needs a better error message when an org has not been granted access to the Release app

Open TooTallNate opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

The message you currently get is:

$ release
✔ Checking if release already exists
✔ Loading commit history
! Please enter the type of change for each commit:


✔ Generating the changelog
⠹ Uploading release

✖ Uploading release

Error! Failed to upload release.

Which isn't very helpful.

To fix, I had to:

  1. Go to https://github.com/settings/applications
  2. Go to "Release"
  3. Hit the Grant button for the Org in question

Maybe we could detect when this scenario happens and give better instructions.

Hi!

Thanks for building release!

I've been using it for quite a while now and am having issues on a repo after transferring it into an org - it's still public, so no changes there in terms of vibilitity.

Do I need to give release some permissions somewhere? I get the exact same error that you are showing above.

Thanks.

@TooTallNate thanks so much for the fix. This problem caused me quite some time and troubles 😅
