As of today I'm getting errors when trying to use git commands with my repository in Azure-DevOps. The repositories sit in a project on DevOps that I can access with the same account and shows no sign of any recent changes to it. The steps I can take to reproduce it is:
git fetch
Error:
fatal: Authentication failed for `<link to repository>`
Things I've tried so far:
Visual Studio
.IdentityService
folderGIT
GIT For Windows
in the Visual Studio Installer
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Team Foundation\7.0\Cache
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Team Foundation\8.0\Cache
GIT
and VS
keys from the Credential Manager
Currently running:
Edit:
I've attempted using Visual Studio Code
with the Azure Repos 1.149.2
extension and get the same error. It yields me the Microsoft page to enter my code for device login which it grants, but using git
commands give me the same error messages.
I've also had my profile removed from the Azure DevOps environment and re-added without success.
To force the Git credential Manager to stop interfering, you can add the following to your global git config:
[credential]
helper =
This effectively turns off any credential manager. In Azure DevOps you can then configure a set of Git Credentials or a Personal Access Token and use that to connect directly.
It doesn't explain the problems you're experiencing. Given that your account seems to be Machine Bound and an AAD account a lot of things can be in play. This includes AAD Home-Realm Discovery and Single Sign-on and Azure Active Directory Guest accounts.
Another possible problem is your Windows Credential Store which has multiple locations where Azure DevOps and Git credentials are stored. And finally the account used to sign-in to Visual Studio 2019 to retrieve its license may be playing up.
With the information you've provided it's neigh impossible for us to help you resolve the issues without looking over your shoulder. I'd almost suggest filing an Azure support request if you have them available so an engineer can look with you.
Optionally run
git-credential-manager.exe erase
And pass in the following data
protocol=https
host=dev.azure.com
path=/jessehouwing/vsts-extensions/_git/vsts-github-tasks
{newline}
To tell git to delete the credentials stored for your account
