I have a script as follows to push to my repo:
cd /pathtomyrepo
git fetch origin
git merge origin/master
git add .
git status
echo -n "Enter the Description for the Change: " [Minor Update]
read CHANGE_MSG
git commit -m "${CHANGE_MSG}"
git push --force-with-lease origin master
Recently it has started giving the following error at the last step after I enter my credentials:
remote: Support for password authentication was removed on August 13, 2021. Please use a personal access token instead.
So I went and created a PAT, I even installed GCM Core. But when I came back and tried to do the last step again with my new access token as follows:
sudo git push --force-with-lease origin master https://<myPAT>@github.com/scstraus/home-assistant-config.git
I get the following:
invalid refspec 'https://<myPAT>@github.com/scstraus/home-assistant-config.git'
If I try this:
sudo git push --force-with-lease origin master https://scstraus:<myPAT>@github.com/scstraus/home-assistant-config.git
I get this:
error: src refspec https://scstraus does not match any.
I tried:
sudo git push --force-with-lease origin master
which gave me the normal password prompt again
Username for 'https://github.com': scstraus
Password for 'https://scstraus@github.com':
remote: Support for password authentication was removed on August 13, 2021. Please use a personal access token instead.
remote: Please see https://github.blog/2020-12-15-token-authentication-requirements-for-git-operations/ for more information.
fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://github.com/scstraus/home-assistant-config/'
git remote -v
gives me:
origin https://github.com/scstraus/home-assistant-config (fetch)
origin https://github.com/scstraus/home-assistant-config (push)
Some other things I tried to make this work:
git remote add origin https://<myPAT>@github.com/scstraus/home-assistant-config
which gave me:
fatal: remote origin already exists.
and
curl -u scstraus:myPAT https://api.github.com/scstraus
which gives me:
{
"message": "API rate limit exceeded for user ID 7644023.",
"documentation_url": "https://docs.github.com/rest/overview/resources-in-the-rest-api#rate-limiting"
}
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong here?
