    /login solved this issue (even I was already logged in)

    I'm seeing this on GitHub Copilot CLI 1.0.105. /login did not help.

    In my case - this was an issue with the organisation's .github-private repo and the configuration not being valid. Once we spent some time to fix it, then the message disappeared. I followed the official docs here to fix it : https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/reference/enterprise-administrators/enterprise-managed-settings#supported-keys
