Git Hub requiring username and password

[ewandenton]

Hi,

as stated in the title, when I try to clone the repository I am asked for a username and password. I have tried my personal GitHub credentials but receive Authentication Failed . How do I avoid this and clone the repository properly?

Thanks :)

@ewandenton is this a private report? otherwise it shouldn’t need a logon
