Having problems getting my autoUpdate to work. Note that I’m pointing at a github repository that is different than the one in the .git/config.

@nornagon @MarshallOfSound @codebytere @ckerr this is the same issue as electron/electron#21566. It’s a regression in Electron 7.1.3 in how aborted redirect requests are handled that broke updates for all apps using electron-updater.

Is there a fix for this? I’m dead in the water and can’t push releases. This should not be closed.
