Sourcetree remote: Invalid username or password
Im trying to push to github with sourcetree but get the following error:
git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false push -v --tags origin live_version:live_version remote: Invalid username or password. fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://github.com/myname/myrepo/' Pushing to https://github.com/myname/myrepo
Completed with errors, see above.
However when I go to
tools > authentication > my github account
And click edit > refresh oauth token 
A page opens and I get:
Authentication Successful
SourceTree has been successfully authenticated. You may now close this page.
It always worked but it suddenly stopped, i do not have two factor authentication. I tried deleting the account and adding it again to no avail. How can I get the connection working again so that I can push my project to github.
Sourcetree version 2.1.8.0
I found the answer here, it is a known bug for version 2.1.8+
The following steps fixed it for me:
Tools > Options > Git > Update Embedded Git
Also pushing with the command line works.
EDIT
Also adding @Latisha's answer:
1. Do the above.
2. Close Sourcetree
3. Delete AppData\Local\Atlassian\SourceTree\passwd
4. Restart SourceTree
5. Hurray!!!
