How can I ask for access to bt-fund repository

[Botir Ismailov]

I'm getting an error when I try to push my branch.

remote: Permission to NordicDeveloperAcademy/bt-fund.git denied to batir.

fatal: unable to access 'github.com/.../': The requested URL returned error: 403

How can I get access to the bt-fund repository?

Hi Botir,
You don't have permission to push to that repo. You need to clone the repo or simply download it from GitHub.

I don't want to push to the repo, I've cloned the repo and I just want to push to my branch.

When you clone a repository, you also get the hidden .git folder, which contains all the Git metadata, including branches and history. If you only want the project files for your own repository, just delete the .git folder after cloning.

Sorry I'm confused, I've cloned the bt-fund repository, created my branch.

Now I want to push my branch:

git push --set-upstream origin b_ismailov/playground

Shouldn't this be possible?

[Benjamin]

No, you cannot create your own branch on this repo. What is your goal here?

[Botir Ismailov]

It's a pity I can't. My goal is to track my code, but looks like I'll need to create my own repo for this.

If your goal is to track your progress, you can either fork the repository or just create a new one. Either works fine!
