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

I needed to change my user name and password in Intellij Did it by

preferences -> version control -> GitHub

There you can change user name and password.

Answer 2

This worked for me on Intellij 12:

Open settings -> passwords, select "Do not remember passwords" and apply/ok.

Do your VCS fetch/update/push/whatever and it should ask you for a password.

Check remember password and OK, it should do the VCS thing correctly.

Go back to settings -> passwords and switch it back to "Remember on disk", then apply/ok.

Answer 3

There is an option to clear passwords
