List of assigned issues and PRs are empty

[Linuus]

Hi!

I'm using Doom Emacs and I'm trying to add the assigned PRs and issues sections in the magit status buffer but it doesn't work.

I run this:

(after! magit
  (magit-add-section-hook 'magit-status-sections-hook 'forge-insert-assigned-pullreqs nil t)
  (magit-add-section-hook 'magit-status-sections-hook 'forge-insert-assigned-issues nil t)
  (magit-add-section-hook 'magit-status-sections-hook 'forge-insert-requested-reviews nil t))

But the new sections doesn't show up.

When I'm running: (forge--ls-assigned-issues (forge-get-repository nil)) it returns nil. I do have assigned PRs and issues in this repo.

Any ideas what might be wrong?

With what forge/host do you have this issue? If it's not github.com, then did you try reproducing the issue with that?

It’s GitHub.com

Check if (ghub--username (forge-get-repository t)) returns the expected value.

Another possible cause is that Github does not consider all modifications to actually count as modifications. Forge only updates modified topics and if Github lies about it, then that's that. I don't know if "add assignee" is one of the modifications that don't count. You can (re-)fetch individual topics (using n f t) and if that fixes it, then this probably is the issue (and we cannot do anything about it).

Hm, could it be a casing issue perhaps? It returns linuus but it shows here as "Linuus" 🤔
I wonder what issues I could get into if I change it to lowercase... Shouldn't be too bad.

But still, I guess it should work either way.

[tarsius]

That must be the issue.

It was! I changed my authinfo file and my gitconfig to use the "correct" username and now it works!
Thanks!

Solution was to change gitconfig etc. to use the correct casing in my username.
