Um, I use https not ssh, as for at least some of the time I'm behind a

I use username and password and git credential manager. Uses the OS
password store. I don't know of any way that 2FA integrates with that.
If someone can tell me how it does (and it's as unobtrusive as, say
gMail which only prompts me if I log on via a previously unused
machine) then that's fine. Otherwise not so much.
On Windows, recent versions of git will pop up GUI login prompt that can
do 2FA. Then it gets cached as normal (and may occasionally pop up again
when the token expires).
Make sure your copy of git is up to date (which you should do anyway
because of the recent vulnerabilities in submodule resolution) and then
2FA is totally doable.
(Only caveat, I get my copy of git for Windows via the VS 2017
installer. I'm pretty sure nothing extra gets added to this, but it's
possible that a special credential manager does.)
Cheers,
Steve
