Everything is working fine when I am pulling from local login but when I tried to login to Windows 7 git version 2.28.0.windows.1 through PSEXEC, and tried to pull the changes it is displaying
git.exe :
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:String) [], RemoteException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : NativeCommandError
Process is terminated due to StackOverflowException.
bash: /dev/tty: No such device or address
error: failed to execute prompt script (exit code 1)
fatal: could not read Username for 'https://github.com': No such file or directory
this is only happening when I tried to pull from PSEXEC mode even though I am also logged in as an administrator and through the same local account.
That error could be linked to:
git config credential.helper
return through psexec)If there is an interactive process asking for the username, try as a workaround/test to include said username in the HTTPS URL:
git remote set-url origin https://<username>@github.com/<username>/<myrepo>
The OP Siva Manasan reports in the comments it works when specifying both the username and password.
git remote set-url origin https://<username>:<password>@github.com/<username>/<myrepo>.git
Ideally, if a recent enough version of Git for Windows (and its associated microsoft / Git-Credential-Manager-for-Windows) is installed on the remote machine accessed by psexec.
First check where Git is installed on the remote machine:
psexec <...parameters for remote machine> where git
Then use the remote credential helper to register the password:
psexec <params> [path\to\git]\mingw64\libexec\git-core\git-credential-manager.exe store < afile
# with afile:
protocol=https
host=github.com
username=some-account
password=personaltoken
Note: it is better to use a PAT (Personal Access Token) than your actual password: safer, and you can revoke the PAT at any time without having to change the password.
Then a simple URL with only your username should be enough:
git remote set-url origin https://<username>@github.com/<username>/<myrepo>.git
