github push403错误的处理

Question

I was able to clone a copy of this repo over HTTPS authenticated. I've made some commits and want to push back out to the GitHub server. Using Cygwin on Windows 7 x64.

C:\cygwin\home\XPherior\Code\lunch_call>git push
Password:
error: The requested URL returned error: 403 while accessing https://MichaelDrog
alis@github.com/derekerdmann/lunch_call.git/info/refs

fatal: HTTP request failed

Also set it up with verbose mode. I'm still pretty baffled.

I just got the same problem and just figured out what's cause.

Github seems only supports ssh way to read&write the repo, although https way also displayed 'Read&Write'.

So you need to change your repo config on your PC to ssh way:

edit .git/config file under your repo directory
find url=entry under section [remote "origin"]
change it from url=https://MichaelDrogalis@github.com/derekerdmann/lunch_call.git tourl=ssh://git@github.com/derekerdmann/lunch_call.git. that is, change all the texts before @ symbol to ssh://git
Save config file and quit. now you could use git push origin master to sync your repo on GitHub

This is often encountered when you clone with the git read-only address (which is the default when you aren't logged in) instead of the read+write ssh address. – Nitrodist Nov 15 '11 at 15:22

My .git/config was more like url=https://github.com/mynickname/my_repo.git But I also changed it like url=ssh://git@github.com/mynickname/my_repo.git and it did the trick – Guillaume Flandre Dec 29 '11 at 21:16

You can change a repo url with git remote set-url command. See my answer below. – ilzoff Jun 4 '12 at 22:33

or simply change it from the command line using git remote set-url <name> git@github.com:<username>/<repo>.git – Yasky Jul 9 '12 at 5:31

For those looking for a non ssh solution, check a few of the other answers here. Adding your username to the https url seems to work. (change config url so that https://@github.com/... is UNAME@github.com/...) – Cyrus Dec 12 '12 at 17:05

To definitely be able to login using https protocol, you should first set your authentication credential to the git Remote URI:

git remote set-url origin https://yourusername@github.com/user/repo.git

Then you'll be asked for a password when trying to git push.

In fact, this is on the http authentication format. You could set a password too:

https://youruser:password@github.com/user/repo.git

You should be aware that if you do this, your github password will be stored in plaintext in your .git directory, which is obviously undesirable.

SSH blocked at work so I have to use HTTPS. Adding the username fixes my issues. – David Poole Oct 13 '12 at 15:40

This should be the accepted answer. No reason to manually edit a config file when there's a command line interface to it. – Steve Bennett Jun 12 '13 at 5:23

Also, for me, this way (username@github...) asked for password and worked, whereas ssh://git@github... failed expecting public key auth. – Steve Bennett Jun 12 '13 at 5:25

works and should be the accepted answer! Especially in environments in which ssh does not work, this is the way to go. Thanks! – AndreasEK Oct 16 '13 at 14:14

@Achint it's an authentication format. You could set your password toohttps://youruser:password@github.com/user/repo.git despite not secure – Thiago F MacedoDec 2 '13 at 17:24

One small addition to Seans answer.

Instead of editing .git/config file manually, you can use git remote set-url command.

In your case it should be:

git remote set-url origin ssh://git@github.com/derekerdmann/lunch_call.git

I find it easier and cleaner, than messing around with dot-files.

I don't know if this is just an old post and git has changed, but as today to fix the problem I had to use git remote set-url origin ssh://git@github.com:derekerdmann/lunch_call.git with a colon between the github.com and the repo name – KevinL Aug 20 at 19:49

The other answers that suggest switching to SSH sort of miss the point. HTTPS is supported, but you must log in with you GITHUB password, not your SSH passphrase (which was what was giving me the same exact error).

I was having the same problem, but making sure to use my actual GitHub password at the terminal password prompt fixed the solution with no alteration to the config, or resorting to SSH.

The reason it is important to note this, is many public institutions (such as my school) will block SSH, but allow HTTPS (which is the only reason I started cloning over HTTPS in the first place).

Hope that helps anyone else having the same issue...

but why? I didn't have to do that in the past. Did a certificate expire, or something? – Thufir Jun 11 '12 at 11:42 — Thufir, Jun 11 '12 at 11:42
Not sure, I'm not an expert, that's just how I got it to work in my case :) – BMB Dec 4 '12 at 9:45 — BMB, Dec 4 '12 at 9:45

Edit .git/config file under your repo directory

Find url= entry under section [remote "origin"]

Change it from url=https://github.com/rootux/ms-Dropdown.git tohttps://USERNAME@github.com/rootux/ms-Dropdown.git

where USERNAME is your github user name

I think @deepwaters got the answer correct for older versions. The HTTPS URL needs to have the username. I had git 1.7.0.4 and git push origin master wouldn't even ask for a password till I added it.

Figured it out. I cloned over HTTPS. Setting up my public SSH keys, cloning over SSH, and pushing over SSH fixed it.

Hmmm... but what when you can't use anything but https, because of a corp firewall, for instance?... According to the github blog, the https access was added to github just for that purpose? – filofel Nov 21 '11 at 14:59

I really don't know. I always clone over SSH now. – Mike Nov 22 '11 at 1:45

Just for posterity (I noticed the timestamp), in regards to filofel's comment: Check out my answer listed above. I have the same restriction you mention, at my school, and found I was supplying the wrong password/passphrase to the terminal prompt. Hope it helps any others with the same issue. – BMB Feb 25 '12 at 0:10

A 403 code is "Forbidden". The server saw your request and refused it. Do you have permission to push to that repository?

For anyone curious, my mac machine vs lucid vm ran git 1.7.6 vs 1.7.0.4, and the exact same repo was pushable from my mac (newer git) but not the VM

Same curl version. Perhaps some older git versions don't support https pushes?

Yes, https push to github works here (even through proxy with password). I use git 1.7.3. For me, it failed first because I typed the wrong password. – guettli Apr 26 '12 at 10:37

It works for me with git 1.7.1, but there is one thing you have to pay attention too (and that was what I missed in my first try): Give the user name in the HTTPS-URL, i.e.url=https://username@github.com/username/repo.git – lwho Jun 16 '12 at 10:04

Do not forget the "git" before the "@".

It could be an accounting issue. The Github account of the upstream (private) repo owner may not be financial. I've seen this where the client's credit card expired.

I figured out my own variation of this problem.

The issue was not changing the protocol from https to ssl, but instead, setting the Github global username and email! (I was trying to push to a private repository.

git config --global user.email "your_github_email_@email.com"

git config --global user.name "Your full name"
