The issue you're facing with authentication when pushing from MATLAB is likely due to GitHub no longer supporting password authentication. Instead, GitHub now requires the use of Personal Access Tokens (PAT) for Git operations over HTTPS. So even if you enter the correct password, GitHub will reject it.Here's what you can do:
- Generate a Personal Access Token (PAT) on GitHub
- Go to: https://github.com/settings/tokens
- Create a new token with the necessary scopes (e.g., repo for repository access).
- Copy the token — you'll use this instead of your GitHub password.
- Use the token in MATLAB when prompted for credentials
- When MATLAB asks for your Git credentials during a push:
- Enter your GitHub username as usual.
- Paste your PAT in the password field.
- Alternatively, set up SSH authentication or use Git Credential Manager
- You can configure SSH keys with GitHub or use the Git Credential Manager for more seamless authentication without manually entering credentials.
- Check the Git version used by MATLAB
- Make sure MATLAB is using an up-to-date Git version that supports modern authentication protocols.
