Git Push Request Failure

When I do the 'git push origin master' command, I get a popup that tells me to put in my username and password (which I've done several times). It then opens a window called OpenSSH and asks me to input them again individually. Then it just fails, giving me the error message "fatal: Authentication failed for 'https...git/'
What can I do? Am I doing the push request wrong?

Hi Kurt!
Thanks for reaching out!
The reason for this is probably the new authentication method provided by Git. Please check if you can change the application settings of your GitHub account and create a personal token for authentication.
Hope this helps.
Best,
Ivan
