do i have to login github account every time i clone or pull a repository in pythonanywhere?

I am using Pycharm, Github and pythonanywhere.

Every time I want to clone or pull a repository in pythonanywhere bash console with git, an authentication procedure show up and I have to fill it out again and that slow down my performance.

are there a way to do an automatic credential login in pythonanywhere?

Solution

  • You can

    • cache your git credentials using git config credential.helper cache --timeout n
    • store your credentials permanently using git config credential.helper store.

    To make these changes globally, call git config with the --global tag.

    Also see the manual on credential storage for reference.
