 what system are you on?
try newly issued ngit v1.5.0 (available from gitworkshop.dev/ngit). this upgrades gitlib2, which handles interaction with the git server.

I suspect if you are still getting the issue it relates to unresolved gitlib2 issues: 
https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/issues/5279
https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2/issues/5752

I can't replicate it on that repository but I can with the following repository on debian:

I've not come across it on any other repositories, and it only started happening recently on that repository.
 *I wonder if i can tie it down to a particular SSL upgrade with nix* 
 I've download `v1.5.1`, but I'm still struggling.  Here is my git config:

When I run `git push nostr article-editor`, I get the following: 

```
nostr: fetching...
 ✔ wss://nostr.wine/              no new events 
 ✔ wss://nos.lol/                 no new events

Error: no repo events at specified coordinates
```

If I simply run `ngit push` I get the following familiar error: 

```
Error: git should set GIT_DIR when remote helper is called

Caused by:
    environment variable not found
```

I can't configure ngit via the CLI because I get that above error whenever I attempt to run ngit. 
 Did you manually construct the nostr URL? I think you are using the wrong identifier. The easiest way to ensure you have it right is by looking it up on gitworkshop.dev/repos
nostr://npub1m3xdppkd0njmrqe2ma8a6ys39zvgp5k8u22mev8xsnqp4nh80srqhqa5sf/nostr.thesamecat.io/Alexandria
What platform are you on?  
 I am on Linux Mint.

I just tried that exact URL, and this is the result from trying to run `git push`: 

```
git push --set-upstream nostr article-editor
nostr: fetching...
 ✘ wss://nostr.thesamecat.io/     connection timeout

 I need to enable first time login via the remote helper. For now you need to login first. Ie `ngit login`

 Is this working on v1.5.2? This may be related to nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqx25pzpgqgmmc409hm4xsdd74sf68a2uyf9pwel4g9mfdg8l5244t6x4jdqy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq3wamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarj9e3xzmny9uqsuamnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0dshsz9mhwden5te0wfjkccte9ehx7um5wghxyctwvshsz9thwden5te0wfjkccte9ejxzmt4wvhxjme0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qgwwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkctcpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumn0wd68ytnzv9hxgtcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsqgq24gel9aezrfsntfk08eqdtp4me94pl3lch54d9dqm30qpumpqeggenwka
