fix(ci): use PAT_TOKEN for tag push in release workflow#193
Merged
Conversation
The 'Create and push tag' step used the default GITHUB_TOKEN from actions/checkout, which lacks push permission. This caused a 403 error when the workflow_dispatch trigger attempted to create and push a tag. Use the PAT_TOKEN secret (already used for the changelog commit) to authenticate the tag push.

Problem
The release workflow fails with a 403 when triggered via
workflow_dispatch. The "Create and push tag" step uses the defaultGITHUB_TOKENfromactions/checkout, which lacks push permission to create and push tags.Failed run: https://github.com/lichtblick-suite/asam-osi-converter/actions/runs/25326002385
Fix
Authenticate the git remote with
PAT_TOKENbefore pushing the tag — the same pattern already used later in the workflow for the changelog commit (line 76).Changes
git remote set-url originwithPAT_TOKENto the "Create and push tag" stepTesting
This is a CI-only change. Verification requires re-running the
workflow_dispatchrelease trigger after merge.
