When pushing code to GitHub, you may encounter the following error:
11+
12+
```
13+
Error pushing repository. Make sure your repository is initialized
14+
```
15+
16+
This issue often occurs when your GitHub repository was not initialized correctly or if your project exceeds GitHub’s file size limits.
17+
18+
19+
**Reinitialize Your GitHub Repository**
20+
21+
Follow these steps to properly initialize your repository:
22+
23+
1. Go to **[GitHub](https://github.com/)** and create a new repository.
24+
2. Check the box for **Add a README file** during creation.
25+
3. After creation, follow the standard steps to connect your GitHub repository to FlutterFlow.

:::warning[Check Your Asset Size]
30+
GitHub does not allow individual files larger than **25MB**. Large image or video files may cause push failures.
31+
:::
32+
33+
**Check for GitHub Size Limits**
34+
To review your file sizes:
35+
36+
1. Download your project code.
37+
2. Open the `assets` folder.
38+
3. Identify files larger than 25MB.
39+
40+
41+
:::tip[Recommended Fix]
42+
To reduce project size:
43+
- Use **network assets** instead of uploading large files directly.
44+
- Optimize images before uploading.
45+
:::
46+
47+
By ensuring your repository is initialized and staying within GitHub’s file size limits, you can avoid this push error.

# Resolve Repository Head Deployment Error on GitHub
7+
8+
When deploying your FlutterFlow app to the Apple App Store or Google Play via GitHub, you may encounter the message `Failed to set the repository head`. This typically means there's an issue with access permissions, a missing branch, or network configuration.
9+
10+
This article outlines the possible causes and step-by-step instructions to fix this issue.
11+
12+
:::warning[Deployment Error]
13+
You may encounter the following error in your build log:
14+
```
15+
Failed to set the repository head
16+
```
17+
:::
18+
19+
Here are the possible causes of this error:
20+
21+
- The GitHub repository does not exist or was deleted.
22+
- You do not have permission to access or write to the repository or the branch.
23+
- The branch specified in the build settings does not exist.
24+
- Network or API connectivity issues between GitHub and the deployment service.
25+
- The codebase contains build or structural errors that prevent deployment.
26+
27+
28+
Use the steps below to resolve the error:
29+
30+
1. **Verify Repository Name**
31+
- Ensure the repository name in your FlutterFlow deployment settings matches the name in GitHub exactly.
32+
33+
2. **Check Branch Name**
34+
- Make sure the branch you are deploying from exists in the repository.
35+
- Avoid typos and capitalization mismatches.
36+
37+
3. **Review Access Permissions**
38+
- Confirm you have push/write access to the repository and the specific branch.
39+
- If using a service account or GitHub App, ensure it has appropriate scopes.
40+
41+
4. **Check Network Connectivity**
42+
- Ensure there are no firewall, VPN, or DNS settings interfering with GitHub access.
43+
44+
5. **Validate Code Locally**
45+
- Before deploying, ensure your project builds and runs successfully on your local machine.
46+
47+
48+
:::info[Additional Resources]
49+
- Learn more about **[setting up GitHub Deployment](/integrations/github/github-deployment-overview)**.
50+
- Refer to **[Codemagic Error Identification Guide](/testing/codemagic-identify-errors)** to classify other deployment failures.
51+

52+
53+
By following these steps, you can resolve the repository head error and continue your GitHub deployment without interruptions.
