I have performed glab auth statusto check for authentication issues
Summary
When git is configured to use the alternative SSH port/host for GitLab, any glab commands requiring auth are completely non-functional.
Steps to reproduce
Add this to your ~/.ssh/config:
Host gitlab.com
Hostname altssh.gitlab.com
User git
Port 443
PreferredAuthentications publickey
Verify that code in a git repo using a gitlab.com host can be pushed/pulled as expected.
Now, try to use a glab command requiring auth such as glab mr create.
What is the current bug behavior?
glab exits with code 1 and error message:
Could not create recovery file: none of the git remotes configured for this repository points to a known GitLab host. Please use `glab auth login` to authenticate and configure a new host for glabnone of the git remotes configured for this repository points to a known GitLab host. Please use `glab auth login` to authenticate and configure a new host for glab
Contrary to what the error message indicates, logging in with a brand new token does not resolve the issue.
What is the expected correct behavior?
glab should function normally as if the regular SSH host were being used.
