This repository does not have any remotes on Github?

[janstieler]

Hi,
I think I do something wrong, but if I open my repositories folder under the tab "Git" and than click on one of my git repositories I got a list under "staged changes".
But on the tab "Github" I got the message This repository does not have any remotes hosted at Github.com. But I have published this repository under Github and managed it yet with the OSX Github App.
What do I'm wrong?

Are you using GitHub Enterprise? That's not supported currently.

[janstieler]

Hi,
no I'm using the free Github.

Hi Janstieler,

I found your question because i ran into the same problem. I had been working on a github branch and had opened it inside atom. I was also able to see the commit options on the Git tab, but saw the same error message as you did when I went to Github (preview).

However, when I added a file in my directory, then the Github (preview) page prompted me to login to be redirected to a github page to create an authentication key to login and connect my atom to my github account. Maybe this may help.

Cheers

p.s. in case it helps, also be sure your git project is in a top level directory in the atom tree (atom/atom#8168)

@janstieler Hello! Do you mind sharing your remotes? (They can be found in your .git/config file, if you're okay with posting the whole thing, or with the git remote -v command).

Same problem here. Adding or modifying files or restart does not help, the Github tab always shows: This repository does not have any remotes hosted at Github.com.

Output from git remote -v is:

origin	git@github-rg:rudygasson/dojo_rules.git (fetch)
origin	git@github-rg:rudygasson/dojo_rules.git (push)

The git tab works fine though, I can stage, pull, push etc. and show the diffs in atom.

Since I am using more than one user account with ssh I had to modify the host names in my ssh config file to be different for every user (for this user github-rg instead of github.com). Otherwise the local git config would try to use the wrong RSA key. Maybe the Github preview package has difficulties with that? I tried also with github.com as host config, but no success.

I can reproduce the behavior you mentioned @rudygasson - seems like the domain has to be github.com? I used this SSH config:

Host github-me
HostName github.com
PreferredAuthentications publickey
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa

And the remote URL was:

git@github-me.com:rsese/test-repo.git

Pushing, pulling, etc. work fine in Atom but the GitHub package does show This repository does not have any remotes hosted at Github.com. When I switch the remote to:

git@github.com:rsese/test-repo.git

And then reload the window, the GitHub tab works ok.

I have

ggreif$ git remote -v
origin	https://gist.github.com/<redacted>.git (fetch)
origin	https://gist.github.com/<redacted>.git (push)

and this doesn't work either.

I have to same issue, is there any fix ? I tried restarting atom and resetting Project folder but the issue persists.
Git Diff package fully recognizes remote origin and changes in working files but GitHub does not 'see' remote repository.

[rsese]

You also have a remote where the domain isn't github.com @AugPro?

[AugPro]

No @rsese , my repo is hosted on github.
I found a solution for worked for me, I manually commited using bash and Atom suddenly recognized the repository.

Sorry for the delay

I'm also having this issue. I'm working with a private repo using ssh.

git remote -v output:

origin  git@github.com:hashbackio/some-private-repo.git (fetch)
origin  git@github.com:hashbackio/some-private-repo.git (push)

@johnhaley81 - if you commit from the command line, does that clear things up in Atom?

[johnhaley81]

It does not ☹️
