Auto-deploy broken after repo rename — GitHub App not triggering deploys

After renaming a GitHub repo, auto-deploy on push stopped working. The service connects to the repo without errors, but pushes to main don't trigger builds.

This matches the issue Angelo acknowledged in this thread (https://station.railway.com/questions/github-auto-deploy-stops-triggering-after-failed-builds) — auto-deploys silently stop triggering because upstream GitHub API requests are not handled gracefully.

What we've tried (all unsuccessful):

- Disconnect and reconnect the repo in service Settings (multiple times)

- Uninstall and reinstall the Railway GitHub App on GitHub

- Revoke Railway's OAuth authorization on GitHub and re-login

- Log out of Railway entirely and log back in via GitHub

- Verified GitHub App is installed with correct permissions and repo access

If you have the affected service opened and do a Cntrl + K -> Deploy latest commit, does it deploy the latest changes?

Other than that, I would suggest deleting that service and re-adding a new one linked to that repo, just be careful since this is a destructive action.

Received a note from Railway -- key was to keep the repo disconnected for awhile.
