How do I update the password for Git?

To fix this on macOS, you can use

git config --global credential.helper osxkeychain

A username and password prompt will appear with your next Git action (pull, clone, push, etc.).

For Windows, it’s the same command with a different argument:

git config --global credential.helper wincred
