"sourceBranch" not working in local config?

[rasky]

I've created a local config file as follows:

{
    "repoOwner": "DragonMinded",
    "repoName": "libdragon",
    "targetBranchChoices": [{ "name": "trunk", "checked": true }],
    "sourceBranch": "preview",
    "multipleCommits": true
}

My global config only contains the access token. When I run backport with no arguments, the tool fetches the remote commits from the default branch (trunk) and shows me the list of trunk commits to select for backport. If I instead run the tool with backport --sourceBranch=preview, everything works as expected.

I'm running backport 9.6.1.

Thanks for raising this. I'll take a look. Until then can you try with backport --skipRemoteConfig and see if that makes a difference?
