Any help?

Solution

  • Changed the ~/.gitconfig file.

    Before:

    [url "https://GITHUB_USERNAME:GITHUB_TOKEN@github.com"]
        insteadOf = https://github.com

    After change:

    [url "https://GITHUB_USERNAME:GITHUB_TOKEN@github.com/orgName"]
        insteadOf = https://github.com/orgName
