Permission denied

Sick project, thanks for making this.

Just a heads up that I get this error when trying to commit from your script:

ERROR: Permission to gruiz17/kunstler.git denied to lambtron.

Where in your script does it look for my GitHub permissions? Maybe there can be a place where I can manually update the GitHub project to one of mine?

[gruiz17]

Eh? weird...I don't have it looking for GitHub permissions, I just change the author date and content date. Though it does seem like a good idea to be able to update the GitHub project to the user's own.

[gruiz17]

@lambtron do you mean it happens after it says 'going through commits now...'?

[lambtron]

Yeah precisely! It happens right after going through commits now.

Thanks for looking into it!

@lambtron "Could not read from remote repository"...hmm, I do have kunstler.sh set to automatically push to 'master' (as in MY master branch on GitHub) so if you cloned it that part of the script would throw a permissions error. Should I just take git push origin master out of the script?

[lambtron]

Oh i see, that makes sense; thats why you suggested to fork the repo. I can just change the git remote in that repo to a dummy project that I own and it should work. Let me try that.

[gruiz17]

Wait, I think I'm dumb lol, I don't think commits to forked projects actually show up...hmm, now I have to figure out another way to actually make this accessible to other users huh.

Thanks for bringing this up!

[lambtron]

Oh haha. I was just about to comment saying that it worked, but the commits didn't show up. No worries! I look forward to using this.

[gruiz17]

Haha, thanks!

Hold on, give me 4 minutes, I think I have a really hacky solution. LOL

[lambtron]

Sweet no worries.

[gruiz17]

Ah! Got one.

1. Make a new repo in your own profile called "kunstler"
2. Clone my repo
3. cd into my repo
4. In command line type git remote set-url origin https://github.com/[username]/kunstler.git

And when you do git push origin master it will work. Hacky as hell and but it sort of works.

Or you could send me pull requests and I could merge them into my own repo after you forked them but that means destroying my own art LOL

[lambtron]

Haha ok yeah i was thinking along the same lines.

I actually went ahead and did that (see it here: https://github.com/lambtron/gruiz17-kunstler). For some reason, Jan 6th 2014 commits show up as Jan 5th in contributions, even though when you click through it, it shows the commits were done Jan 6th.

Weird??

[gruiz17]

whaaaat? Weird. I'll look into it later.

Actually I'll close down this current issue. This discussion's better for another issue.
