[Rd] GitHub passwords in .git/config?

[Marcel Ramos]

Hi Spencer,

The first line in the `[remote "origin"]` section should read:

```

url = git using github.com:sbgraves237/Ecdat.git<mailto:git using github.com:sbgraves237/Ecdat.git>

```

Generally, I add these configs by doing a clone on the command line such as:

> git clone git using github.com:sbgraves237/Ecdat.git<mailto:git using github.com:sbgraves237/Ecdat.git>

so that I don't have to mess with the config file.


Best,

Marcel

I'm diverging:  Now I get:


>>> git pull
ssh: Could not resolve hostname github.com:sbgraves237: nodename nor servname provided, or not known
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.


      ** With .git/config as follows:


[core]
    repositoryformatversion = 0
    filemode = true
    bare = false
    logallrefupdates = true
    ignorecase = true
    precomposeunicode = true
[remote "origin"]
    url = ssh://git@github.com:sbgraves237/Ecdat.git<mailto:ssh://git@github.com:sbgraves237/Ecdat.git>
    fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
[branch "master"]
    remote = origin
    merge = refs/heads/master


      I have an SSH key on my GitHub account, which says it was "Added on Jul 3, 2019 Last used within the last 2 weeks — Read/write".


      Should I delete my current local copies and clone them fresh from GitHub?
      Spencer

Don't write passwords down like this. Your error is likely in
expecting _ssh_
authentication over _https_ -- when it works only over ssh. Use the
alternate
form for a remote e.g. one that looks like git using github.com:emacs<mailto:git using github.com:emacs>-
ess/ESS.git
        I'm confused.  I changed that line to:


              url =
https://git@github.com:sbgraves237/sbgraves237/Ecdat<mailto:https://git@github.com:sbgraves237/sbgraves237/Ecdat>


        Then when I did "git pull" I got:


fatal: unable to access
'https://git@github.com:sbgraves237/sbgraves237/Ecdat/<mailto:https://git@github.com:sbgraves237/sbgraves237/Ecdat/>': Port number
ended with 's'


        ???
        Thanks,
        Spencer

Hth, Dirk
