terraform-provider-github: cannot upgrade to above 3.1.0

We have many resources managed with terraform 0.12.29 and provider 2.9.2.

Now we want to upgrade to at least 4.0.1 and even 4.1.0. But anything above 3.1.0 breaks terraform plan with error message. I can reproduce this to one specific branch_protection resource which errors with the message

Error: Could not resolve to a node with the global id of 'liveshare-custom-domain-pipeline'

I have pruned the code and state so that only 2 resources remain and I am getting this error.

No error when I upgraded to just 3.1.0

Terraform Version

Terraform v0.12.29
+ provider.aws v3.0.0
+ provider.github v4.1.0

Your version of Terraform is out of date! The latest version
is 0.14.0. You can update by downloading from https://www.terraform.io/downloads.html

Also tried with terraform version 0.13.5 to no avail

Steps to Reproduce

1. terraform plan

Important Factoids

No error for provider 3.1.0. I also get the above error when I use target on this resource

terraform  plan -target github_branch_protection.liveshare_custom_domain_pipeline
Refreshing Terraform state in-memory prior to plan...
The refreshed state will be used to calculate this plan, but will not be
persisted to local or remote state storage.

data.github_team.devops: Refreshing state...
data.github_team.operations: Refreshing state...
github_repository.liveshare_custom_domain_pipeline: Refreshing state... [id=liveshare-custom-domain-pipeline]

Error: Could not resolve to a node with the global id of 'liveshare-custom-domain-pipeline'

Before pruning code and state, I get no error when I plan with target on other resources.

I also get the following error on state show

terraform state show github_branch_protection.liveshare_custom_domain_pipeline
unsupported attribute "branch"
# github_branch_protection.liveshare_custom_domain_pipeline:
resource "github_branch_protection" "liveshare_custom_domain_pipeline" {

I tried the same terraform state show with other resources and I get similar error.
