Why is Github asking for username/password when following the instructions on screen and pushing a new repo?
git, github
Solution
Don't use HTTP use SSH instead
change
https://github.com/WEMP/project-slideshow.git
to
git@github.com:WEMP/project-slideshow.git
you can do it in `.git/config` file
Problem
I'm the owner of an organization on github and just created a repo and tried pushing but I'm running into an issue where it's asking me for my username even though I can SSH just fine: ``` $ ssh -T git@github.com Hi Celc! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access. $ git add . $ git commit -m 'first commit' [master (root-commit) 3f1b963] first commit 6 files changed, 59 insertions(+) create mode 100644 .gitignore create mode 100644 main.js create mode 100644 package.json create mode 100644 readme.markdown create mode 100644 views/index.ejs create mode 100644 views/layout.ejs $ git remote add origin https://github.com/WEMP/project-slideshow.git $ git push -u origin master Username for 'https://github.com': ``` What am I doing wrong? This has never happened to me before but I recently also upgraded to git 1.7.10.3.
