Question

I am running

git pull

on a repository in command-line. It asks for username and password. When I complete them the pull is successful, but I would like to run git pull from batch file and I would like my batch file to provide the asked username and password. How can I run git pull from batch file if my username is myusername and my password is mypassword? I’ve tried with the following (in my batch file):

cd mylocation
git pull
myusername
mypassword

But this was not successful. How can I achieve what I want?

Answer 1

Run this command:

git config --global user.name "Your Name Here"
git config --global user.email "[e-mail]"

and it will remember your username and password after entering it once more.
