This backend uses the
isomorphic-git
package to create repositories and push them to GitHub. Theisomorphic-git
push method has an optionalcorsProxy
argument that allows the package to work in a browser, but is unnecessary in a backend such as this. For some reason, this argument was set tohttps://cors.isomorphic-git.org/
, a proxy set up by theisomorphic-git
project that is only guaranteed to work for requests sent fromhttps://isomorphic-git.github.io/
, though it sometimes works from other origins. The configuration of this proxy must have changed on the evening of 11-July-2022, because all of our requests began to fail at that time. The fix is simple: stop using the proxy and everything works.
