Updating credentials from the macOS Keychain

You'll need to update your saved credentials in the git-credential-osxkeychain helper if you change your username, password, or personal access token on GitHub.

Note

Updating credentials from the macOS Keychain only applies to users who manually configured a personal access token using the osxkeychain helper that is built-in to macOS.

We recommend you either configure SSH or upgrade to the Git Credential Manager (GCM) instead. GCM can manage authentication on your behalf (no more manual personal access tokens) including 2FA (two-factor auth).

Git からパスワードの入力するダイアログが表示されたら、personal access token を入力します。 または、Git Credential Manager などの認証情報ヘルパーを使用できます。 より安全な認証方法を優先し、Git のパスワードベースの認証が削除されました。 詳しくは、「個人用アクセス トークンを管理する」をご覧ください。

Updating your credentials via Keychain Access

  1. Click on the Spotlight icon (magnifying glass) on the right side of the menu bar.
  2. Type Keychain Access, then press the Enter key to launch the app.
  3. In Keychain Access, search for github.com.
  4. Find the "Internet password" entry for github.com.
  5. Edit or delete the entry accordingly.

Deleting your credentials via the command line

Through the command line, you can use the credential helper directly to erase the keychain entry.

$ git credential-osxkeychain erase
host=github.com
protocol=https
> [Press Return]

If it's successful, nothing will print out. To test that it works, try and clone a private repository. If you are prompted for a password, the keychain entry was deleted.
