Question

I\'ve just updated from Git 1.7.11 to 1.8.5

Now when trying to push to bitbucket I\'m getting the following message:

fatal: could not read Pas

Answer 1

Not necessarily the best answer - but in the end I resolved this by removing/uninstalling git altogether and then reinstalling.

I have no idea why I needed to do this. At present I've reinstalled 1.7. I'll try an update again sometime and update this post.
