Bitbucket fails to authenticate on git pull

Question

I use BitBucket and had to change my password because it was compromised.

git pull

remote: Invalid username or password. If

Answer 1

I needed to do this and run a git pull in order to set my password from the command line in order to get this working.

Note this method saves your password in a plain text file on your disk:

git config --global credential.helper store
git pull
