I\'m on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and just upgraded my git
from 1.7
-something to version 1.8.4
. The problem is when I want to push to a GitHub repo
I had this issue due to the fact that I had 2-Factor-Auth enabled, and the password it was asking for was the generated password / personal access token, not my LDAP password. I didn't remember that I had set it up at the time.
Creating a Personal Access Token: https://help.github.com/articles/creating-an-access-token-for-command-line-use/ , allowed me to push successfully using the generated token as a password.
Context: Internally hosted Enterprise Github. Able to clone, enabled as a collaborator, but unable to push origin master.
