Settings -> Developer settings -> Personal access tokens -> Generate new token
For Windows
Open your computer's Control Panel
Then click on User Account
Next, go on Credential Manager
Then go to Windows Credentials and find git:https://github.com
Finally, click on Edit then On Password and then, update the password with your Github Personal Access Token
For MAC OS
Click the Spotlight icon on the right side of the navigation bar (magnifying glass).
Type Keychain access then launch the app
In Keychain Access, search for github.com
Find the internet password entry for github.com and update it with your Github Personal Access Token.
For Linux based OS
You'll need to set up a login and email address in the local GIT client for Linux.
123$ git config --global user.name "your_github_username"
$ git config --global user.email "your_github_email"
$ git config -l
After configuring GIT, we can use it to access GitHub. Use your Github Personal Access Token instead of the password
1234$ git clone https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-REPOSITORY
> Cloning into ...
$ Username for 'https://github.com' : Enter your github username
$ Password for 'https://github.com' : Enter your github personal access token here
You may now cache the provided record on your computer to store the token.
1$ git config --global credential.helper cache
To verify, try pulling with -v.
1$ git pull -v
You can remove the cache record if necessary.
12$ git config --global --unset credential.helper
$ git config --system --unset credential.helper
Developer’s Hack for All OS
Go to your local computer's project folder.
To update the remote URL just type
1$ git remote set-url origin https://[githubtoken]@github.com/[username]/[repositoryname].git
Or, if you are cloning
1$ git clone https://[username]:[githubtoken]@github.com/[username]/[repositoryname].git
Note: This developer’s hack solution is compatible with all operating systems (Mac, Windows, or Linux). However, you must do this for each repository in your local. So, it is better to configure the credentials globally using the steps mentioned above.
