GitLab remote: HTTP Basic: Access denied and fatal Authentication

Question

I am on mac OS unlike this post:

• 'git push origin MyBranchName' throws error "HTTP Basic: Access denied"

I have password conf

Answer 1

Note: do not mix GitLab SSL settings and GitLab SSH keys.

If what you have configured in your GitLab profile is an SSH public key, then your HTTPS URL would not use it.

Regarding your HTTPS credentials, double-check:

• if the two-factor authentication is disabled, or
• if you have special characters in your username or password, or
• if you have a Git credential helper: git config credential.helper.
