Save Bitbucket (Git) password NOT working on IDEA 2017.1 Ultimate

Answered

I recently opened a Java project that I use Bitbucket (Git) for version control. I did an usual git push, but the IDE asked for my password. I checked on Bitbucket app passwords and I already had one configured for that purpose, but anyway, I deleted it and created a new app password and completed the popup with the new password and marked to save the password.

It worked and I could push/pull as I pleased. Then, I closed the IDE and went to do other things, when I opened it up later and tried to do another push, it asked AGAIN for a password, I gave it a chance and repeated all the steps I did for the first round. In the end, I did this process 3-4 times, but the IDE continued to ask me for password every time I tried to do a push/pull, even thought I said the SAVE IT.

 

How can I fix that? It's utterly annoying and affects my productivity!!!

This is probably the following issue:

Fix will be included into future versions. As a workaround at the moment - use URL without username in it.
