@gdiObjects in my case, I had too many branches on my winget-pkgs fork (254). As soon as I removed a few, everything started working again.

How do I remove branches from a winget-pkgs fork? (thanks)

[JanDeDobbeleer]

@gdiObjects you can use the GitHub UI to display all branches and there's a trash icon next to every one.

Thanks for the link! There are only around 8 forks, so I'm not sure that's the problem.

I have the same error but I just have 1 branch still open

[LeonarddeR]

I have 18 branches, same error indeed.

So I was able to repro the issue, and I believe the issue was that my forked branch was behind the upstream reference "microsoft:master". Once I fetched the new commits and merged it into the fork's master branch, I was able to submit successfully. Could you try that and verify that it resolved the issue?

[Megasware128]

@ryfu-msft Yes! Updating master on my fork fixed my issue

[r12f]

I am using the update command with --submit directly, and I am also getting this exact same error. The version I am using is v0.5.0.1.

.\wingetcreate.exe update r12f.Rnp -u https://github.com/r12f/rnp/releases/download/0.1.143.main/rnp.0.1.143.main.windows.x86.msix https://github.com/r12f/rnp/releases/download/0.1.143.main/rnp.0.1.143.main.windows.x64.msixhttps://github.com/r12f/rnp/releases/download/0.1.143.main/rnp.0.1.143.main.windows.arm64.msix -v 0.1.143.0 -t <PST> --submit

I'm observing this issue even if I manually fetch changes from upstream to my fork of winget-pkgs repo before running winget-create =/

UPD: This is possibly caused by the fact that I was trying to use token without public_repo scope.
