How do I update the password for Git

Question

Hi Team,

I'm using BitBucket with Xcode and Git for version control, and recently I changed all of my passwords. Now I'm no longer able to push my local commits to my repository on BitBucket. It is showing me the below error.

Authentication failed for 'https://______.git'

Hi@akhtar,

You need to update your credentials. For Windows, you can use the below command.

$ git config --global credential.helper wincred

To fix this on macOS, you can use the below one.

$ git config --global credential.helper osxkeychain
