Hey @JayaprakashJena, here's a brief solution path:

1. Check URL: Verify the remote URL using git remote -v.

2. Authentication: Ensure you're authenticated with the correct GitHub account.

3. Clear Cached Credentials: Run git credential-cache exit to reset cached credentials.

4. SSH Setup: If using SSH, verify your key is linked to the right GitHub account.

5. HTTPS Setup: Use git config --global credential.helper store to reconfigure credentials.

6. Access Level: Confirm you have push access to the repository.

7. Switch to SSH: Consider using SSH for smoother authentication.

8.Proxy: Adjust Git settings for proxy if needed.

9. GitHub 2FA: If using 2FA, generate a Personal Access Token and use it as your password.

// Try these steps and attempt pushing again. If needed, provide more info about your setup for targeted help.

You can do this with the following command: git remote set-url origin ***@***.***:JayaprakashJena/devopsmission.git Once you have done this, you should be able to push to the repository Here are some additional things to check: - Make sure that you are using the correct username and password for GitHub. - Make sure that you have enabled two-factor authentication on your GitHub account. If you have two-factor authentication enabled, you will need to enter a code from your phone in addition to your username and password when you push to GitHub. - If you are using a proxy, make sure that the proxy is configured correctly for GitHub. — Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub <#61800 (comment)>, or unsubscribe <https://github.com/notifications/unsubscribe-auth/ATBRJJXEJVOI3GNMKRJ7X23XSDASBANCNFSM6AAAAAA2YDCZ7Y> .
