Description
The
update-wingetjob was failing at PR creation withResource not accessible by integration. Root cause: Octo STS mints GitHub App installation tokens, and a GitHub App can only open PRs where it is installed on the base repo. Since we can't install our App onmicrosoft/winget-pkgs, PR creation always fails.Switching to a user-scoped PAT resolves issue where any authenticated user can open PRs to public upstream repos from a fork.
