Intellij Android Studio opens localhost page to login on github


I am using android studio version 4.2 beta 3 and while I am using the GUI to push/fetch the studio prompts to login on github while I have already set an account.

enter image description here

The strange this is that I can use git on terminal but not on GUI.

I select the first option and my browser navigates me to a website that says to authorize in Github, I press the button, login on Github and then I get the following localhost page which needs some unknown credentials.

Do you have any ideas on how to fix this issue?

Thanks


Solution

  • This actually turns out to be an Android Studio bug. See e.g. this and this reports

    In the corresponding IntelliJ IDEA version it is working fine.

    Log in using a token instead, as a workaround.
