Get access to privat GitHub Repo after change to access token
Answered
Hi all,
I used the password authentication for GitHub. Today changed. I just removed in PHPStorm the GitHub Account and created a new one with the NEW CREATED ACCESS TOKEN (with full repo access, also privat).
I restarted PHPStorm. But if I push or pull I still get the error:
- remote: Support for password authentication was removed on August 13, 2021. Please use a personal access token instead.
- remote: Please see https://github.blog/2020-12-15-token-authentication-requirements-for-git-operations/ for more information.
- fatal: unable to access xxxxx

Hello Mike Fritzsche
If you have authenticated in GitHub under Preferences | Version Control | GitHub and still have an error about Password, then there is a chance that you have "use credential helper" enabled.
Please disable "Use credential helper" under Preferences | Version Control | Git and see if it helps.
Yes Github is connected. If I try to update the project I get now a popup "Can't update master has no tracked branch".
On other devises it works like before ;-(
Mike Fritzsche when you have such error message, there should be a link button that allows you to Choose upstream branch.
My only branch is master. Its not possible to chose them. The popup shows first origin and if I write next to it master popup comes again. So not working to select.
Mike Fritzsche I am terribly sorry, but could you please share a screenshot of an issue?
It was just not possible to add the branch. Not accepted.
I deleted now the whole project and installed the project from repo new.
