There are two separate issues here.
https://discourse.julialang.org/t/slow-tagbot-no-repo-update-after-16-hours/80870
As discussed in that thread, the GitHub API was returning 5xx error codes, which usually indicates an issue on the server side, not on the client (TagBot) side.
As discussed in that thread, the logs show a 403 error of the form:
github.GithubException.GithubException: 403 {"message": "Resource not accessible by integration", "documentation_url": "https://docs.github.com/rest/reference/git#create-a-tag-object"}
This is because GitHub has changed the default permissions of the GITHUB_TOKEN
for new repositories, as reported in https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/CompatHelper.jl/issues/416. This issue will be fixed by #236.
There have been two recent discussions on discourse about TagBot's failing to update package repos. I am not sure discourse was the right place and am raising this issue in the event nobody knows about this.
