Failed to push branch to raise PR to 'https://github.com/lxc/linuxcontainers.org.git/

LXC

I need to create a PR so I have pulled the project and created a new branch that I need to push with my changes so that I can create a PR but then I am getting this error,

‘Remote: Permission to lxc/linuxcontainers.org.git denied to [my-git-user-name]. unable to access ‘https://github.com/lxc/linuxcontainers.org.git/’: The requested URL returned error: 403’

Any help on how I should raise the PR if I am doing it wrong will be sincerely appreciated.

You need to use your Github account to fork the repository, then you can make modifications to your fork and open a PR against the main repository so we can review it and merge it.

What you’re doing above is attempting to overwrite the official repository directly which Github is refusing since you don’t have write access to it :slight_smile:

That’s alright, thank you @stgraber
