Git: force user and password prompt

Add a -v flag with your git command . e.g. git pull -v

v stands for verify .


This is most likely because you have multiple accounts, like one private, one for work with GitHub.

SOLUTION On Windows, go to Start > Credential Manager > Windows Credentials and remove GitHub creds, then try pulling or pushing again and you will be prompted to relogin into GitHub

SOLUTION OnMac, issue following on terminal:

git remote set-url origin https://[email protected]/username/repo-name.git

by replacing 'username' with your GitHub username in both places and providing your GitHub repo name.
