repo rename -> invalid memory access pattern #8675
Description
gh --version
gh version 2.4.0+dfsg1 (2022-03-23 Ubuntu 2.4.0+dfsg1-2)
https://github.com/cli/cli/releases/latest
(that's about 2 years ago so this may already be fixed)
I attempted to rename a repo, cron -> .cron. The repo was called .cron at one point, and I intended to move the repo back to the initial name.
bug discovery:
~/.cron main ❯ gh repo rename .cron
? Rename thor314/.cron to .cron? Yes
✓ Renamed repository thor314/.cron
