Remove credentials from Git

0 votes

Hi Guys,

I'm working with several repositories in Git. Today I am trying to commit and push code into another one. But it is showing me the error.

$ git push appharbor master
error: The requested URL returned error: 403 while accessing https://xxxxxxxx/info/refs?service=git-receive-pack
fatal: HTTP request failed

Hi@akhtar,

The Git credential cache runs a daemon process that caches your credentials in memory and hands them out on demand. So killing your git-credential-cache--daemon process throws all these away and results in re-promoting you for your password if you continue to use this as the cache.helper option.

You could also disable the use of the Git credential cache using git config --global --unset credential.helper. Then reset this, and you would continue to have the cached credentials available for other repositories (if any). You may also need to do git config --system --unset credential.helper if this has been set in the system configuration file.
