ci: fix homebrew publish — drop --fork-org (gittools-bot is a user) - #5005
Merged
Conversation
…n org) The Publish to Homebrew run failed with "Unable to fork: 'gittools-bot' is the login for a user account. You must pass the login for an organization account." brew bump-formula-pr --fork-org requires an organization login, but the publish authenticates as the gittools-bot user. Omitting the flag makes brew fork to the authenticated user (gittools-bot/homebrew-core) — the same target push-to used. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Pull request overview
This PR fixes the Publish to Homebrew GitHub Actions workflow by removing an invalid brew bump-formula-pr flag (--fork-org gittools-bot) that causes the run to fail because gittools-bot is a user account (not an organization). This keeps the intended behavior—forking Homebrew/homebrew-core to the authenticated user—while avoiding the hard failure introduced in the prior migration to brew bump-formula-pr.
Changes:
- Remove
--fork-org gittools-botfrom thebrew bump-formula-prinvocation to prevent forking errors. - Add an inline comment documenting why
--fork-orgis intentionally omitted and what behavior is expected instead.

Problem
The Publish to Homebrew run after #5004 failed:
brew bump-formula-pr --fork-orgrequires an organization login, butgittools-botis a user account (gh api users/gittools-bot→"type": "User"), and the publish authenticates as that user.Fix
Drop
--fork-org gittools-bot. With no--fork-org,brew bump-formula-prforksHomebrew/homebrew-coreto the authenticated user — i.e.gittools-bot/homebrew-core, the exact fork the previousmislavaction targeted viapush-to. No behavioural change beyond removing the invalid flag.Follow-up to #5004.
