Hi
Are there any github savvy people here, who knows about the conversion
from password to tokens???
I've done the walk-through on github, but can't get it to work?!?
Funnily enough it still works with password?!?
A bit of help is needed, please 
Regards Benny

You don't tell what fails.

git push https://TOKEN@github.com/user-name/repo.git

It will work with passwords for a few months yet. Just gives you a
warning. You have not mentioned the way you have chose to comply with
github's demand ....

I choose to use ssh keys for mine, quite easy to setup, just upload
your public key and change the remote to a git: prefix rather than a
https: one

Like this -
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i $ cd
~/Pascal/tomboy-ng$ git remote -v> origin https://github.com/tomboy-
notes/tomboy-ng.git (fetch)> origin https://github.com/tomboy-
notes/tomboy-ng.git (push) $ git remote set-url origin
git@github.com:tomboy-notes/tomboy-ng.git$ git remote -v> origin
git@github.com:tomboy-notes/tomboy-ng.git (fetch)> origin
git@github.com:tomboy-notes/tomboy-ng.git (push) The url now starts
with 'git', seems thats aka ssh ...

Hi
@bytebites:
Quotegit push https://TOKEN@github.com/user-name/repo.git
,got my first token revoked 
Now trying to wrangle a new one 

@dbannon:
Dono much 'bout ssh, apart from headless servers, so i'll just stick
to https for now.
Other people can get it to work... 

Edit: Github community has the answer, just needed to convert from
binbows to linux and "Bob's your uncle"
