Cannot get Azure DevOps Pull Requests to work

[Mathyn]

Hi,

I am working on setting up Weblate to use in combination with Azure DevOps. I've set things up so Weblate pulls changes from the develop branch and will also push changes back to the develop branch.

Since I use pull requests to merge work in develop I've locked down the develop branch to only allow merging from a pull request. This means Weblate must also create pull requests when it wants to push changes.

I've found Weblate documentation on how to set this up and managed to configure things so the 'Azure DevOps pull request' option shows up when configuring the Version Control System.

In short to set things up I've configured the following environment variables (real values replaced with dummy values):

WEBLATE_AZURE_DEVOPS_USERNAME=MyProjectName
WEBLATE_AZURE_DEVOPS_ORGANIZATION=MyOrganizationName
WEBLATE_AZURE_DEVOPS_TOKEN=MyToken
WEBLATE_AZURE_DEVOPS_HOST=dev.azure.com

However as soon as I click the 'Push' button in 'Repository Maintenance' I get the following error:

Could not fork repository at dev.azure.com: Repository not found. Check whether exists and MyProjectName has access to it.

This seems to suggest two things:

• Between 'whether' and 'exists' it seems like the project name should be set, however I cannot see any way to configure this.
• WEBLATE_AZURE_DEVOPS_USERNAME according to the documentation should be the project name, but this error message suggests it should be a user name?

Anyone have any success using the pull request feature from Azure DevOps?

I am using a self hosted version of Weblate 5.6.2

I have no experience with Azure DevOps, but there was some discussion on this at #10227

Thanks @nijel I'll take a look, some comments certainly seem to apply to what I am seeing. I'll leave this discussion open for now, but will update as soon as I get (or find) an answer.
