Solution

  • I resolved this problem. I think it happened maybe because of https but I am not very sure. You can Switch remote URLs from HTTPS to SSH.

    1.Pls refer to this link for details:https://help.github.com/articles/changing-a-remote-s-url/

    Also I had to config the ssh key.

    2.Follow this:https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys/

    I came across this problem because I replaced my mac, but I do the transfer of data,I think it is probably because the key reasons.
