Please provide your deployment logs, this is a generic error, and usually, the real reason is listed right before this.

Thank you for replying! Happily, I discovered the solution in an answer you gave to another issue. That's also when I realized about "generic errors" and deleted my comment as mine was unrelated to this issue. I'm still learning. Thanks again!

Having the same problem, was using self hosted runners.

By default on new repos the workflows only have read access

You need to explicitly grant write access to the workflow so that it can push to the repo

Add this to your workflow and it should solve the problem:

permissions:
  contents: write
