Fixing missing pushurl when using chezmoi with a radicle remote
Using chezmoi init in combination with a radicle remote, e.g. chezmoi init rad://z3NeeQp2CXTkNRGba6gni1C8s4nSx, chezmoi runs a plain git clone through the helper - this seems to set up fetching correctly but fails for push:
error: no public key given as a remote namespace, perhaps you are attempting to push to restricted refs
The issue is that rad clone sets a separate pushurl that includes the local node's public key (NID) as a namespace — rad://
You can fix this by manually setting the pushurl for the repo:
chezmoi cd
NID=$(rad node status --only nid)
git config remote.origin.pushurl rad://<RID>/$NID
Or, you could also clone the repo first and then point chezmoi at it:
rad clone rad:<RID> ~/dev/dotfiles
chezmoi init --source ~/dev/dotfiles --apply
