Howdy All,

LIFE IS Cute 🙂 Today is with family unit fellow member none other than VISUAL STUDIO 🙂 Sharing the details of how the issue is resolved related to connecting with GIT from Visual Studio 2017.

Background:

• I am working on the one of the Job using CSOM which governs the Teams.
• Job make sure that every O365 Grouping has at least ii group owners
• So as usual I started Visual Studio 2017 (bit behind, should u.s. Visual Studio 2019 🙂 ).
• Nosotros are using GIT repository to commit our source code
• I started syncing the solution and getting an error.
• I couldn't login to Git hub.
• When I was trying with Visual Studio Online, its working perfectly fine 🙂

Consequence / Error:

Git failed with a fatal mistake.
could non read Username for 'https://<name of my project in GIT>.visualstudio.com': terminal prompts disabled

I am not only getting the issue while Syncing (Pulling) the changes only then I tried to clone again and same consequence as follows

Error encountered while cloning the remote repository: Git failed with a fatal error.
could not read Username for 'https:// <name of my project in GIT> .visualstudio.com': last prompts disabled

Resolution: Again as usual Google my friend 🙂 Started bit googling and found couple of approaches and tried as well every bit

Approach ane : Removing credentials from credential manager. Following are the steps:

• Go to Control Panel >> User Accounts as

Fig1: Windows x >> Control Panel >> User Accounts

• Click on link "Manage your credentials" from left carte every bit shown in below Fig2

Fig2: Windows 10 >> Command Panel >> User Accounts >> Manage your credentials

• Click on "Windows Credentials" from where we tin can remove the credentials as shown in below 2 figures iii and 4

Fig3: Windows 10 >> Control Panel >> User Accounts >> Manage your credentials >> My all Windows credentials

Fig4: Windows x >> Control Console >> User Accounts >> Removing credentials

• But this approach did not worked for me 🙁

Approach 2 : Deleting "Git" folder from the location " C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Customs\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\TeamFoundation\Team Explorer ". This arroyo worked for me 🙂

After successfully deleting "Git" folder, I could successfully log in.
