NetBeans 12.6 Push to GitHub

[Sam Lalani <sa...@yahoo.com.INVALID>]

I have NetBeans 12.6 installed on my Windows 10 computer.  I used the
instructions at the following URL to try and link my NetBeans 12.6 project
to GitHub:

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4IP44k5U7Y

 

My repository is private.  For the Repository URL I use the HTTPS link, and
then I add my username and password, which I have verified are typed in
correctly.  However, when I try to push my project to GitHub, I am getting
the following error message:

 

Incorrect credentials for repository at https://github.com/xxx/xxx.git

 

If I use the GitHub Desktop application, then I am able to drag and drop my
NetBeans project to GitHub, but I would prefer to use the NetBeans Git
integration to update my repository.  I Google searched this issue but am
unable to find anything that helps me resolve it.

 

I would appreciate any help anyone can provide.

 

Thank you,

 

Sam Lalani

Hi Dave,

 

I am just getting started with GitHub and your answer was exactly what I needed!  I setup a token on GitHub and now I am able to push my project to GitHub.

 

Thank you very much!

Are you using a personal authentication credential as your password rather than the Github website password?  I read that GitHub has stopped accepting the password.  You build the personal authentication credential on the GitHub site and then grab it for your local system for use.  I think it is only available as you make it so you have to securely store it locally.
