Change remote repository credentials (authentication) on Intellij IDEA 14

Question

I recently changed my Bitbucket password for security reasons. However, IntelliJ didn\'t update my repository to the new credentials, so it stops me from pulling/pushing any

Answer 1

For Mac users this could also be helpful:

Credentials are stored in Keychain Access.app. You can just change them there.

Answer 2

Doing the following steps helped in my case:

1) open Settings 2) go to Git and Uncheck "Use credential helper" checkbox 3) Do git pull 4) Enter password in the pop up dialog

Git operations will now work fine in IntelliJ!

Answer 3

git credential-manager clear Target Url: https://bitbucketxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.git

Answer 4

For Mac User Please Go to As Below:

(First of all you must have installed bitbucket plugin)

Android Studio -> Preference -> Other Settings -> Bitbucket

Now change your password and click on Test for verify it. Will also able to add SSH Key for login.

Also its depend on which plugin you used. Some have direct like

Android Studio -> Preference -> Bitbucket linky

Answer 5

You can change your password from settings screen (Ctrl + Alt + S by default) as attached screenshot. After clearing, on the firts remote operation (like pull/push, etc.) it'll ask you your credentials)

IMPORTANT: Take a copy of the file before this operation.

Answer 6

In my case, I got a CAPTCHA error. If you get that, first logout/login to Bitbucket, Github, .... on the website and enter the required captcha.

After that, try again from intellij and it should prompt for another password.
