Hi https://github.com/zleap/test I am trying to create a new repository on git hub i have created a new directory flocally and done the following |touch README.md git init git add README.md git commit -m "first commit" git remote add origin https://github.com/zleap/test.git git push -u origin master When i do the last step I enter my user name and password and it says fatal: authenticaion failed I am using the CORRECT username and password as if I go to my original helloworld directory and upload a new file it works fine I don't understand what I am doing fully, any ideas why it would say failed when I am following the steps given my new directory is as above so called test.
I'm guessing that you need to perform one more step after git init to add your GH username to the new repo's metadata. That's how it works in bzr/launchpad; in that case the command is bzr whoami. Something like that? HTH
