I'll describe what worked for me. First, I uploaded my ssh key to github. Follow these instructions: https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys/#step-4-add-your-ssh-key-to-your-account You can start at step 4 as you already have a key (RSA preferred, but DSA is accepted). Next, go to your whimsy clone directory, and execute the following command: git remote set-url origin g...@github.com:apache/whimsy.git (Note: instead of looking up this command every time, I do this by editing .git/config directly which is safe to do). You can verify that you have configured this correctly by issuing: $ git remote -v origin g...@github.com:apache/whimsy.git (fetch) origin g...@github.com:apache/whimsy.git (push) At this point, both "git pull" and "get push" should both work. - Sam Ruby >> On Jan 18, 2016, at 3:39 PM, Craig L Russell <c...@apache.org> wrote: >> >> I'm trying to push a change to whimsy and I'm getting remote authentication >> failure: >> >> clr% git push >> Password for 'https://clr-apa...@github.com': >> remote: Invalid username or password. >> fatal: Authentication failed for >> 'https://clr-apa...@github.com/apache/whimsy.git/' >> >> I have changed my password.
