fatal: could not read Username for ‘https://github.com’: No such file or directory

Follow the steps to setup SSH keys here: https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys

OR

git remote add origin https://{username}:{password}@github.com/{username}/project.git

Update: If you get “fatal: remote origin already exists.” then you have to use set-url:

git remote set-url origin https://{username}:{password}@github.com/{username}/project.git
