Authentication failed when cloning via script












1














I'm trying to build script which clone git repository without the need to enter the username and password.



I read this post:
How to provide username and password when run “git clone git@remote.git”?



and try in that way:



git clone http://MyUserName:MyPassword@Location


But I'm getting the following error:
fatal: Authentication failed for http://MyUserName:MyPassword@Location



When I'm running the command without password:



 git clone http://MyUserName@Location


and enter the password in the next step, it works.



I want that it will be automatic without the need to enter the password.



what am I missing with the first command ?

    Why don't you just store your password in the Git credential helper?

    Why don't you use SSH instead of http?
