(The error was parsed as 4: Authentication failed. Some common reasons include:

  • You are not logged in to your account: see File > Options.
  • You may need to log out and log back in to refresh your token.
  • You do not have permission to access this repository.
  • The repository is archived on GitHub. Check the repository settings to confirm you are still permitted to push commits.
  • If you use SSH authentication, check that your key is added to the ssh-agent and associated with your account.
  • If you use SSH authentication, ensure the host key verification passes for your repository hosting service.
  • If you used username / password authentication, you might need to use a Personal Access Token instead of your account password. Check the documentation of your repository hosting service.)

Error: The name is not activatable

This is related to secret storage on the local machine, and I wish I had more context on how to fix these as the steps are very setup-specific. See #1020 for some additional context on folks who have dug into the issue from their experiences.
