codecommit Access denied with an non existent explicit Deny

Question

I am trying to perform a git pull action and I get the warning:
Access denied: User: arn:aws:iam::account:user/username is not authorized to perform: codecommit:GitPull on resource: arn:aws:codecommit:region:account:repo with an explicit deny in an identity-based policy
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

but none of my permissions contain an explicit deny. In fact there is an explicit allow for codecommit:* to the repo in on of my policies. I have an mfa policy, but it allows access to codecommit:* without mfa. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Answer

Hello.

Since CodeCommit is encrypted with KMS, you need to configure IAM policy to allow KMS operations.  
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codecommit/latest/userguide/auth-and-access-control-iam-identity-based-access-control.html  
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codecommit/latest/userguide/encryption.html

So, I don't know what your policy settings are currently, but I think it will work if you set it as follows.
