The Git credential cache runs a daemon process which caches your credentials in memory and hands them out on demand. So killing your git-credential-cache—daemon process throws all these away and results in re-prompting you for your password if you continue to use this as the cache.helper option.

You could also disable use of the Git credential cache using git config --global --unset credential.helper. Then reset this, and you would continue to have the cached credentials available for other repositories (if any). You may also need to do git config --system --unset credential.helper if this has been set in the system configuration file (for example, Git for Windows 2).

On Windows you might be better off using the manager helper (git config --global credential.helper manager). This stores your credentials in the Windows credential store which has a Control Panel interface where you can delete or edit your stored credentials. With this store, your details are secured by your Windows login and can persist over multiple sessions. The manager helper included in Git for Windows 2.x has replaced the earlier wincred helper that was added in Git for Windows 1.8.1.1. A similar helper called winstore is also available online and was used with GitExtensions as it offers a more GUI driven interface. The manager helper offers the same GUI interface as winstore.

Extract from the Windows 10 support page detailing the Windows credential manager:

To open Credential Manager, type «credential manager» in the search box on the taskbar and select Credential Manager Control panel.

And then select Windows Credentials to edit (=remove or modify) the stored git credentials for a given URL.

I faced the same issue as the OP. It was taking my old Git credentials stored somewhere on the system and I wanted to use Git with my new credentials, so I ran the command

$ git config --system --list

It showed

credential.helper=manager

Whenever I performed git push it was taking my old username which I set long back, and I wanted to use new a GitHub account to push changes. I later found that my old GitHub account credentials was stored under
Control Panel → User Accounts → Credential Manager → Manage Windows Credentials.

I just removed these credentials and when I performed git push it asked me for my GitHub credentials, and it worked like a charm.

You have to update it in your Credential Manager.

Go to Control Panel > User Accounts > Credential Manager > Windows Credentials. You will see Git credentials in the list (e.g. git:https://). Click on it, update the password, and execute git pull/push command from your Git bash and it won’t throw any more error messages.

Using latest version of git for Windows on Windows 10 Professional and I had a similar issue whereby I have two different GitHub accounts and also a Bitbucket account so things got a bit confusing for VS2017, git extensions and git bash.

I first checked how git was handling my credentials with this command (run git bash with elevated commands or you get errors):

git config --list

I found the entry Credential Manager so I clicked on the START button > typed Credential Manager to and left-clicked on the credential manager yellow safe icon which launched the app. I then clicked on the Windows Credentials tabs and found the entry for my current git account which happened to be Bit-bucket so I deleted this account.

But this didn’t do the trick so the next step was to unset the credentials and I did this from the repository directory on my laptop that contains the GitHub project I am trying to push to the remote. I typed the following command:

git config --system --unset credential.helper

Then I did a git push and I was prompted for a GitHub username which I entered (the correct one I needed) and then the associated password and everything got pushed correctly.

I am not sure how much of an issue this is going forward most people probably work off the one repository but I have to work across several and using different providers so may encounter this issue again.

If you want git to forget old saved credentials and re-enter username and password, you can do that using below command:

After running above command, if you try to push anything it will provide option to enter username and password.

If your credentials are stored in the credential helper (generally the case), the portable way to remove a password persisted for a specific host is to call git credential reject:

in one line:

$ echo "url=https://appharbor.com" | git credential reject

or interactively:
```
$ git credential reject
protocol=https
host=gitlab.com
username=me@example.com
↵
```
- ↵ is the Enter symbol, just hit Enter key twice at the end of input, don’t copy/paste it
- The username doesn’t seem recognized by wincred, so avoid to filter by username on Windows

After that, to enter your new password, type git fetch.

This approach worked for me and should be agnostic of OS. It’s a little heavy-handed, but was quick and allowed me to reenter credentials.

Simply find the remote alias for which you wish to reenter credentials.

$ git remote -v 
origin  https://bitbucket.org/org/~username/your-project.git (fetch)
origin  https://bitbucket.org/org/~username/your-project.git (push)

Copy the project path (https://bitbucket.org/org/~username/your-project.git)

Then remove the remote

$ git remote remove origin

Then add it back

$ git remote add origin https://bitbucket.org/org/~username/your-project.git

Building from @patthoyts’s high-voted answer:

His answer uses but doesn’t explain local vs. global vs. system configs. The official git documentation for them is here and worth reading.

For example, I’m on Linux, and don’t use a system config, so I never use a --system flag, but do commonly need to differentiate between --local and --global configs.

My use case is I’ve got two Github crendentials; one for work, and one for play.

Here’s how I would handle the problem:

$ cd work
# do and commit work
$ git push origin develop
# Possibly prompted for credentials if I haven't configured my remotes to automate that. 
# We're assuming that now I've stored my "work" credentials with git's credential helper.

$ cd ~/play 
# do and commit play
$ git push origin develop                                                                   
remote: Permission to whilei/specs.git denied to whilei.                
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/workname/specs.git/': The requested URL returned error: 403

# So here's where it goes down:
$ git config --list | grep cred
credential.helper=store # One of these is for _local_
credential.helper=store # And one is for _global_

$ git config --global --unset credential.helper
$ git config --list | grep cred
credential.helper=store # My _local_ config still specifies 'store'
$ git config --unset credential.helper
$ git push origin develop
Username for 'https://github.com': whilei
Password for 'https://whilei@github.com':

Compressing objects: 100% (2/2), done.
Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 1.10 KiB | 1.10 MiB/s, done.
Total 3 (delta 1), reused 0 (delta 0)
remote: Resolving deltas: 100% (1/1), completed with 1 local object.
To https://github.com/whilei/specs.git
   b2ca528..f64f065  master -> master

# Now let's turn credential-helping back on:
$ git config --global credential.helper "store"
$ git config credential.helper "store"
$ git config --list | grep cred
credential.helper=store # Put it back the way it was.
credential.helper=store

It’s also worth noting that there are ways to avoid this problem altogether, for example, you can use ~/.ssh/config‘s with associated SSH keys for Github (one for work, one for play) and correspondingly custom-named remote hosts to solve authentication contextualizing too.

What finally fixed this for me was to use GitHub desktop, go to repository settings, and remove user:pass@ from the repository url. Then, I attempted a push from the command line and was prompted for login credentials. After I put those in everything went back to normal. Both Visual Studio and command line are working, and of course, GitHub desktop.

GitHub Desktop->Repository->Repository Settings->Remote tab

Change Primary Remote Repository (origin) from:

https://pork@muffins@github.com/MyProject/MyProject.git

To:

Update Actually useHttpPath is a git configuration, which should work for all GCMs. Corrected.

Summary of The Original Question

working with git on Windows
working on multiple repositories on GitHub
wrong credentials used for another GitHub repository

Although the title says «Remove credentials», the description leads me to the assumption that you may have multiple accounts on GitHub, e.g. for job-related vs. private projects. (At least that issue made me find this topic.)
If so read on, otherwise, ignore the answer, but it may come in handy at some time.

Reason

Git Credential Managers (short GCM) like Microsoft’s GCM for Windows store credentials per host by default.
This can be verified by checking the Windows Credential Manager (see other answers on how to access it on English, French, and German Windows versions).
So working with multiple accounts on the same host (here github.com) is not possible by default.

In October 2020 GCM for Windows got deprecated and superseded by GCM Core. The information here still applies to the new GCM and it should even use the credentials stored by GCM for Windows.

Solution

Configure git to include the full path to the repository as additional information for each credential entry. Also documented on GCM for Windows.
I personally prefer to include the HTTP(S) [repository] path to be able to use a separate account for each and every repository.

For all possible hosts:

git config --global credential.useHttpPath true

For github.com only:

git config --global credential.github.com.useHttpPath true

Have a look at the GCM and git docs and maybe you want to specify something different.

Change repo to HTTPS
Run command git config --system --unset credential.helper

Enter credentials in the login window that pops up.
Git pull completed successfully.

If you want git to forget old saved credentials and re-enter username and password, you can do that using below command:

git credential-cache exit

After running above command, if you try to push anything it will provide option to enter username and password.

If your credentials are stored in the credential helper (generally the case), the portable way to remove a password persisted for a specific host is to call git credential reject:

in one line:

$ echo "url=https://appharbor.com" | git credential reject

or interactively:
```
$ git credential reject
protocol=https
host=gitlab.com
username=me@example.com
↵
```
- ↵ is the Enter symbol, just hit Enter key twice at the end of input, don’t copy/paste it
- The username doesn’t seem recognized by wincred, so avoid to filter by username on Windows

After that, to enter your new password, type git fetch.

Simply find the remote alias for which you wish to reenter credentials.

$ git remote -v

origin  https://bitbucket.org/org/~username/your-project.git (push)

Building from @patthoyts’s high-voted answer:

His answer uses but doesn’t explain local vs. global vs. system configs. The official git documentation for them is here and worth reading.

For example, I’m on Linux, and don’t use a system config, so I never use a --system flag, but do commonly need to differentiate between --local and --global configs.

My use case is I’ve got two Github crendentials; one for work, and one for play.

Or you can even directly try this command:

This will start prompting for passwords again on each server interaction request.

Git Credential Manager for Windows

The Git Credential Manager for Windows (GCM) provides secure Git credential storage for Windows.
GCM provides multi-factor authentication support for Azure DevOps, Team Foundation Server, GitHub, and BitBucket.

Usage

After installation, Git will use the Git Credential Manager for Windows and you will only need to interact with any authentication dialogs asking for credentials.
The GCM stays invisible as much as possible, so ideally you’ll forget that you’re depending on GCM at all.

Assuming the GCM has been installed, using your favorite Windows console (Command Prompt, PowerShell, ConEmu, etc.), use the following command to interact directly with the GCM.

git credential-manager [<command> [<args>]]

Commands

delete (deprecated)

Removes stored credentials for a given URL.
Any future attempts to authenticate with the remote will require authentication steps to be completed again.

This method is being deprecated and users should use «git credential reject» instead

deploy [—path <installation_path>] [—passive] [—force]

Deploys the Git Credential Manager for Windows package and sets Git configuration to use the helper.

deploy —path <installation_path>

Specifies a path (<installation_path>) for the installer to deploy to.
If a path is provided, the installer will not seek additional Git installations to modify.

deploy —passive

Instructs the installer to not prompt the user for input during deployment and restricts output to error messages only.

When combined with --force all output is eliminated; only the return code can be used to validate success.

deploy —force

Instructs the installer to proceed with deployment even if prerequisites are not met or errors are encountered.

When combined with --passive all output is eliminated; only the return code can be used to validate success.

remove [—path <installation_path>] [—passive] [—force]

Removes the Git Credential Manager for Windows package and unsets Git configuration to no longer use the helper.

remove —path <installation_path>

Specifies a path (<installation_path>) for the installer to remove from.
If a path is provided, the installer will not seek additional Git installations to modify.

remove —passive

Instructs the installer to not prompt the user for input during removal and restricts output to error messages only.

When combined with --force all output is eliminated; only the return code can be used to validate success.

remove —force

Instructs the installer to proceed with removal even if prerequisites are not met or errors are encountered.

When combined with --passive all output is eliminated; only the return code can be used to validate success.

version

Displays the current version.

clear

Synonym for delete.

install

Synonym for deploy.

uninstall

Synonym for remove.

get / store / erase / fill / approve / reject

Commands for interaction with Git.

A fun git challenge! I had to make a request against a remote repository in git. The only issue is that only a shared GitHub account had access, not my own account (due to a vendor limitation). So when I occasionally needed to use this remote, I would have to log out and log in as the service account. It just seemed a bit messy.

I found a reasonable way to do this, and I’ll run through the steps below. (Have a better way? I’d love to hear about it in the comments!)

Login with the shared account. Since I had the credentials, I did this via a normal browser session (in a private window since I was just logging in once.)
Generate a personal access token. If you’re unfamiliar with this, you can follow the steps in the GitHub docs.
Store in my password manager. This access token is as good as a password, so I treat it with the respect it deserves.

Add the Remote in Git

Add the remote if it’s not already added: git remote add REMOTE_NAME THE_URL_OF_THE_REMOTE

Unset the git credential manager temporarily

I’m doing the steps here manually but it could almost certainly be automated in a tiny script.

Check the value of credential manager: git config --system credential.helper. Note this value for later; you will need it to set things back.
Unset the credential manager, which will prompt you for PW going forward: git config --system --unset credential.helper

Running the command

Run your applicable command, e.g. git fetch upstream in my case. You’ll be prompted for a password.
Use the shared account username, and the personal access token as the password

Return things to normal

Set the value of the credential manager back to what it was, e.g manager-core in my case: git config --system credential.helper manager-core

That will let you quickly do one-time operations as the other account without needing to log out / in, mess up your other git credentials, etc.

Happy gitting!

Использование последней версии git для Windows в Windows 10 Professional, и у меня была аналогичная проблема, в которой у меня есть две разные учетные записи GitHub, а также учетная запись Bitbucket, поэтому все немного запуталось в VS2017, git-расширениях и git-bash.

Сначала я проверил, как git обрабатывает мои учетные данные с помощью этой команды (запустите git bash с повышенными командами или вы получите ошибки):

git config --list

Я нашел учетную запись Credential Manager, поэтому я нажал кнопку «СТАРТ»> набрал «Диспетчер учетных данных» и нажал левой кнопкой мыши на значке безопасного значка администратора, который запустил приложение. Затем я нажал вкладки учетных данных Windows и нашел запись для моей текущей учетной записи git, которая оказалась Bitbucket, поэтому я удалил эту учетную запись.

Но это не помогло, поэтому следующим шагом было сбросить учетные данные, и я сделал это из каталога репозитория на моем ноутбуке, который содержит проект GitHub, который я пытаюсь нажать на пульт. Я набрал следующую команду:

git config --system --unset credential.helper

Затем я сделал git push, и мне было предложено ввести имя пользователя GitHub, которое я ввел (правильный, который мне нужен), а затем связанный пароль, и все получилось правильно.

Я не уверен, насколько большая проблема связана с тем, что большинство людей, вероятно, работают с одним репо, но мне приходится работать по нескольким и использовать разные провайдеры, чтобы снова столкнуться с этой проблемой.

если ваш компьютер защищен или вы не заботитесь о безопасности паролей, это может быть достигнуто очень просто. При условии, что удаленный репозиторий на GitHub и origin это ваше локальное имя для удаленного репозитория, используйте эту команду
git remote set-url --push origin https://<username>:<password>@github.com/<repo>
The --push флаг гарантирует, что это изменяет URL репозитория для только. (Вопрос, заданный в исходном сообщении, касается только. Требуется имя пользователя + пароль только для операций push-это нормальная настройка для общественные репозитории на GitHub . Обратите внимание, что частная репозитории на GitHub также потребуют имя пользователя+пароль для операций извлечения и извлечения, поэтому для частного репозитория вы не захотите использовать --push flag …)

предупреждение: это по своей сути небезопасно, потому что:

ваш интернет-провайдер или любой, кто регистрирует доступ к сети, может легко
см. пароль в виде обычного текста в разделе URL;

любой, кто получает доступ к вашему компьютеру, может просмотреть ваш пароль с помощью git remote show origin.

вот почему использование ключа SSH является принятым ответом.

даже ключ SSH-это не совсем безопасно. Любой, кто получает доступ к вашему компьютеру, может, например, сделать толчки, которые разрушают ваш репозиторий или, что еще хуже, push — коммиты, вносящие тонкие изменения в ваш код. (Все нажатые коммиты, очевидно, хорошо видны на GitHub. Но если кто-то хотел изменить ваш код тайно, они могли --amend предыдущая фиксация без изменения сообщения фиксации, а затем принудительно нажмите ее. Это было бы незаметно и довольно трудно заметить на практике.)

но раскрывая свой пароль хуже. Если злоумышленник узнает ваше имя пользователя+пароль, они могут сделать такие вещи, как заблокировать вас из вашей собственной учетной записи, удалить вашу учетную запись, навсегда удалить репозиторий, так далее.

как вариант — для простоты и безопасность — вы можете поставить только ваше имя пользователя в URL, так что вам придется вводить пароль каждый раз, когда вы git push но вам не придется давать свое имя пользователя каждый раз. (Мне очень нравится этот подход, вводя пароль дает мне паузу, чтобы думать каждый раз, когда я git push, так что я не могу git push случайно.)
git remote set-url --push origin https://<username>@github.com/<repo>
