I have some GitHub repositories. When I want to push some commits to the server I have to authenticate myself by using username and password (I don't want to change to another authentication method like ssh keys).

Unfortunately, every time I do a push I see the GitHub Login dialog.

GitHUb Login

I don't want to use it because it creates tokens in GitHub. After I clicked Cancel I finally see the standard dialog:

How could I permanently disable the GitHub Login dialog?

You seem to have enabled the Windows Credential Manager (https://github.com/Microsoft/Git-Credential-Manager-for-Windows) - that is normally done on Git for Windows installation.

You can disable switch to another credential manager globally or just for a specific repository (e.g., wincred, cf. https://tortoisegit.org/docs/tortoisegit/tgit-dug-settings.html#tgit-dug-settings-credential).

  • I've configured to use wincred and GitHub Login does not appear anymore :)
