I am trying to create a project on GitLab. I have up to the point of committing a new project with git cli but it freezes (no input goes in). The command I used was git push -u origin master, it asks me a question and does not commit. enter image description here

    Can you edit your question to show the output you're seeing as a code block? – bk2204 May 25 '20 at 17:46
  • after entering *username* and *password* the cursor isn‘t showable? And it displayed no error message like "wrong password" or "user doesn‘t exist" or so...? – SwissCodeMen May 25 '20 at 19:45

When it prompts you for the password, nothing will update on the window, but it is recording your input. Type your answer and hit enter.

I had this issue when using an older version of git with a repo that had LFS enabled. After entering my password, it would just freeze. Make sure you have the latest version of git installed and try git push -v -u origin master to get verbose output and see if it's just a large push.

  • I had to run my shell as admin in order for the command to work and to install the binaries. – prometheus May 26 '20 at 10:08
  • Now, I get an new error: λ git push -u origin master remote: `HTTP Basic: Access denied fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://gitlab.com/username/projectname.git/'` – prometheus May 26 '20 at 10:25
  • Your password is wrong. Do you have caps lock on? If you are able to log in with the same password on their website, try disabling 2 Factor Authentication. If it works, you can set up a personal access token. You can follow Lucas's advice on this link: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-com/support-forum/-/issues/980 – Deep Shah May 26 '20 at 13:25

Alternatively ,I used gitkraken (a software solution) to setup my accounts.I configured each git user and it worked with no collsions.
