Is anyone seeing this issue with Tower? When I try to Create GitHub Repository, if I enter anything in the "description" field, I get the following GitHub API Parse Error: "A response from the GitHub API could not be parsed. Please try to retrieve the resource again."

Tower then acts as if the repo was not created, but if I log into GitHub, I see it was.

If I don't enter anything into the "description" field, everything works as it should.

  • Please post the code you used. – reubano May 01 '14 at 19:07
  • Hey Reubano, thanks for the reply, but I am not using any code, I'm using Tower which is a GUI for GIT on Mac. Terminal way is working fine. I'm just wondering why Tower is having this issue, wasn't always like this. Could be a change that Tower made or maybe GitHub made and this is just something Tower needs to update. Or it could be just my computer. Trying to eliminate possibilities. – BMCwebdev May 01 '14 at 21:49

This is indeed a bug in current versions of Tower. However, as you already noticed, the repository gets created successfully - it's only the error message that's incorrect. Until we fix this, the simple workaround is to clone the repository like any other repo with the standard "Clone Remote Repository" dialog.
