Fix CLI usage examples to match actual argument order

Let me try the git push manually. I'm not sure why that didn't work.

#4

It worked. I think it must have failed for you due to prompting for the ssh passphrase. Anyway, the push has been done please proceed.

Thank you. I approved the PR. Are you able to merge it and mark the issue as resolved (close it with a comment resolved by the PR)?

Looks like the gh CLI token doesn't have permission to merge PRs. You'll need to merge it through the GitHub web UI or update the token permissions. Once you've merged it, I can try closing the issue, or you can do both from the UI — since the PR body has Fixes #1, GitHub will automatically close the issue when the PR is merged.

#6

Thank you I will do the merge through the web UI. I thought the token had suitable rights but clearly it did not.

#7

Oh, I learned something today!

Good to know for next time! If you want to update the token permissions, you can do it in GitHub under Settings > Developer settings > Personal access tokens — make sure the token has the repo scope (or for fine-grained tokens, the "Pull requests" permission set to Read & Write). But the web UI merge works just as well.

#8

Thank you. It turned out to be a little more subtle than that: the token did have the repo write access permission, however the user did not have write access to this specific repository. That's because the organization default is to grant a base permission of read only to organization members in new repositories. You have to explicitly grant write access to any non-admin user in the organization for them to be able to merge.

That makes sense — the token can only exercise permissions the user actually has on the repo. A token with repo scope still can't merge if the underlying user only has read access at the organization level. Good to know that the org's base permission defaults to read-only for new repos, so write access needs to be explicitly granted per-repo (or via a team).

#9

Thank you for fixing the issue!
