Fetching Pull Requests Failed: Project Name Required #61

maggiojoe2 · 2021-11-03T18:26:27Z

Issue Type: Bug

Set up PAC and settings with URL and Project Name
Try to refresh
Error pops up and no PRs are found: "Fetching pull requests failed: A project name is required in order to reference a Git repository by name."

I have set the project name in both User and Workspace settings, but the error always says "A project name is required in order to reference a Git repository by name."

One weird thing is that the project name for my work has spaces so the URL project name is Something like "Company%20Name%20Applications." I tried both with "Company Name Applications" and with the space.

Can you enable debug log level in settings azdoPullRequests.logLevel and post the logs from Output tab

maggiojoe2 · 2021-11-09T16:10:35Z

I am uncomfortable posting the logs as is since I am working in a work repository so I removed identifying info. Hopefully this can still be useful.

Its not able to find the repository which is open in VSCode in AzDO. Have you opened the correct repo in VSCode? Is there any special character in your repo name?

The code figures out the repo name by looking into git remote fetchUrl. You can look at this fetchUrl using command git remote -v

maggiojoe2 · 2021-11-11T17:20:57Z

That's weird. The repo name is only alphabetic characters no numbers or spaces. It's two words using PascalCase. The URL found using git remote -v has the repo name in all lower case. That is the only difference I see there. I have also tried using multiple repos and it seems to fail to find any of them even though it is seeing 184 repos in the project.

Edit: I can also confirm that following the url found using git remote -v does send me to the repo on azure devops.

ankitbko · 2021-11-12T04:04:08Z

Weird, can you paste the URL in git remote -v. You can hide the repo name if you want. I am interested in format of the URL

maggiojoe2 · 2021-11-12T16:40:33Z

git remote -v

https://<companyname>@dev.azure.com/<companyname>/<company%20name%20applications>/_git/<reponame>

ankitbko · 2021-11-16T17:35:28Z

I think the casing is the problem. Can you create a new remote with URL containing the correct casing as it appears on AzDO portal by running git remote add vscodepr <URL_with_correct_casing>. Then set the property in vscode settings as "azdoPullRequests.remotes": ["vscodepr"]

maggiojoe2 · 2021-11-17T16:07:47Z

I was wondering if that meant something! It works! I am now able to see the PRs.

Would it be possible to make a change to get this working without manually needing to change the url? I might look into making a PR to fix that if I can figure it out later, but I've never done work on a VSCode extension before so it'd be new.

scripnichenko · 2022-02-21T11:31:36Z

➕ 1️⃣ Issue happens for my project as well: Project name contains spaces and the actual result is an error as was described above. Will be happy to help to fix it!

dustintran333 · 2022-05-08T23:53:18Z

@scripnichenko I have the exact same problem and hoping to get some helps. Could you share the steps you've done to address it?

kodyabbott · 2023-05-17T02:21:55Z

@ankitbko and @scripnichenko I am running into this issue as well, the project name has spaces and is capitalized for each word

git remote -v
origin https://<name>@dev.azure.com/<name>/<Company%20Project%20Name>/_git/<reponame>

"azdoPullRequests.orgUrl": "https://<name>@dev.azure.com"
"azdoPullRequests.projectName": "Company%20Project%20Name"

I also tried "azdoPullRequests.projectName": "Company Project Name" but neither work.

Current settings:

    "azdoPullRequests.orgUrl": "https://<name>@dev.azure.com",
    "azdoPullRequests.projectName": "Company%20Project%20Name",
    "azdoPullRequests.telemetry.enabled": false,
    "azdoPullRequests.remotes": [
        "origin"
    ],
    "azdoPullRequests.logLevel": "debug"

kodyabbott · 2023-06-09T05:01:25Z

Finally got it to work. I had to reload the window anytime I make a change to the settings. SO testing different settings did not take until reload, but this is what ended up working:

"azdoPullRequests.orgUrl": "https://<name>@dev.azure.com"
"azdoPullRequests.projectName": "Company Project Name"

AvremelM · 2024-07-19T15:39:30Z

Yeah, just had this issue. Project names with spaces need to be configured unencoded it seems.

Would be nice for that to be documented in an FAQ or Known Issue or something.

m4nii · 2024-08-21T07:08:39Z

We have configured our local repos using SSH instead of HTTP and the extension doesn't seem to be able to parse the URLs correctly, so adding a new remote ("vscodepr") using HTTP and setting azdoPullRequests.remotes to ["vscodepr"] did solve it for us - but would surely be great to also support SSH URLs in the remote.

current output of git remote -v
