Username not found #25

Closed caifara closed 1 year ago

caifara commented 1 year ago

I encounter this old problem:

https://github.com/stephencelis/ghi/issues/390

ghi config --auth myusername
Enter myusername's GitHub password (never stored): ✔
Not Found

caifara commented 1 year ago

Solution (at least on a Mac):

in your github developer settings, create a classic token with repo access
create a password on your keychain: security add-internet-password -a <username> -s github.com -l 'ghi token' -w
edit .git/config with:

[ghi]
  token = !security find-internet-password -a <username> -s github.com -l 'ghi token' -w

I won't close the issue, as obviously, this is more of a workaround.
