I'm just setting up Git Extensions in Visual Studio 2010 and can't really get it to work - I can't authenticate.

In Git Extensions, if I choose Plugins->GitHub I can add user, password, API token and choose SSH. Fine. Except that API tokens aren't available anymore as GitHub are moving to API v 3 now.

Anyone got news on this? I've seen a very recent discussion but no clue.

Surely there must be more GitHub users than me using Git Extensions and having authentication issues?

Just for future reference: this has been fixed since v2.33
