Running v1.2.3 in a docker container witrh persistence on the /DATA folder.

I have a private remote github repository setup. I have enabled the automatic github workflow:

However, when I do saves I see the commit counter go up, but github never gets updated automatically. If I manually push it from the editor gui it updates github with no issues. Just no automatic pushes are happening.

This is what I see after doing downloads to a flow:

Note the commit that still needs to be pushed.

Yes, the automatic workflow only commits locally. It doesn't push to the remote.

Ah, so worked as designed then. 🙂 For some reason I thought it would automatically push to the remote gits too.

Mystery solved.
