Hey people, how can I configure hydra to checkout a private repo through ssh? I have tried adding a ssh key to the hydra user home dir, my project config looks like this:

   name    | displayname |                description                | enabled | hidden | owner |              homepage               | declfile  | decltype |              declvalue              | enable_dynamic_run_command

 nixconfig | nixconfig   | System configuration for all my computers |       1 |      0 | admin | https://github.com/timhae/nixconfig | spec.json | git      | git@github.com:timhae/nixconfig.git | f
(1 row)

(please excuse the formatting).That unfortunately gives me the following error:

which is expected as my default branch is 'main'. How do I tell hydra about that?

No worries, your feedback helped me solve the issue so thanks for that :) the linked source also says

as an input value use: <name>=<value> without spaces and
specify at least he repo url and branch.

which would have been nice to show up here..

in case someone encounters the same problem: my issue was that I did not change the owner in the access token configuration snippet from the docs:

<github_authorization>
NixOS = Bearer gha-secret😱secret😱secret😱
</github_authorization>

here NixOS refers to the owner in github, I changed that to timhae and now everything works fine :)
