Hello Codeberg team,

I am currently unable to push to my repository because of a stale lock file on the remote server. I have waited and retried pushing, but the error persists.

https://codeberg.org/alvlp/modular-inventory

Error message:

remote: error: cannot lock ref 'refs/heads/main': Unable to create '/mnt/ceph-cluster/git/gitea-repositories/alvlp/modular-inventory.git/./refs/heads/main.lock': File exists.
remote: 
remote: Another git process seems to be running in this repository, e.g.
remote: an editor opened by 'git commit'. Please make sure all processes
remote: are terminated then try again. If it still fails, a git process
remote: may have crashed in this repository earlier:
remote: remove the file manually to continue.

Could someone please manually remove the main.lock file from the Ceph cluster for this repository so I can push my changes?
Thank you for your help!

Yep, I have similar problem. Had to recreate repo. But the issue repeats.
