fatal: could not read Username for 'https://github.com': No such file or directory

Question

I have the following problem when I try to pull code using git Bash on Windows:

fatal: could not read Username for \'https://github.com\': No such file or dir         


        

Answer 1

I found my answer here:

edit ~/.gitconfig and add the following:

[url "git@github.com:"]
 insteadOf = https://github.com/

Although it solves a different problem, the error code is the same...
