'How do I clone git private repository in eclipse? [duplicate]
Solution 1:[1]
Since April 2021, no more password is accepted when authenticating Git operations on GitHub.com: you would need to use (or cache) a PAT (Personal Access Token)
Since a public repository does not require authentication when cloning, you would not see the same error message.
So: Double-check what password is used.
Said password could be cached in your Windows Credential Manager: see what git config credential.helper returns.
If it is manager-core, open the windows Credential Manager, and see if you have a github.com entry.
If you do, check the cached password.
