Remote repository URL cannot be https

[george-maroun]

• When the remote repository URL is set to https instead of ssh, the syncer.PushLocal returns an error: "takeover failed; error invalid auth method"

Specifically, the error is returned on line 711:

if err := r.Push(&git.PushOptions{
		RemoteName: remoteName,
		RefSpecs: []config.RefSpec{
			config.RefSpec(refSpec),
		},
		Progress: os.Stdout,
		Force:    true,
		Auth:     appAuth,
	}); err != nil && err.Error() != "already up-to-date" {
		return err
	}

• Changing the remote repository to ssh fixes the error. To do so, run the following command:
  git remote set-url origin [email protected]:jlewi/roboweb.git

To check if the remote repo is set to https or ssh, run git remote -v
If the listed URL starts with https:// the repo is set to https

@franciscouribe this is the issue you were hitting with hydros

I think the fix here is to switch to using GitHubApp credentials consistently as part of #3

I think I was mistaken. I think this is coming from the 'hydrod takeover' command. I think that might already be using go-git.

More importantly it's using the repo the user already checked out which is why the auth method selected by the user matters.
