Change remote repository credentials authentication on Intellij IDEA 14

Question

I recently changed my Bitbucket password for security reasons  However  IntelliJ didn t update my repository to the new credentials  so it stops me from pulling pushing anything to my repository  I am not using any plugins for this  just the integrated VCS operations inside the IDE   Every time I pull push  this pops out      fatal  Authentication failed for      https   momothereal xxxxxxxxxxxx bitbucket org team repo git    Where xxxxxxxxxxxx is my old password  I think changing this remote address with the correct password would fix it  though I cannot find where to do so

This worked for me on Intellij 12   Open settings -  passwords  select  Do not remember passwords  and apply ok   Do your VCS fetch update push whatever and it should ask you for a password   Check remember password and OK  it should do the VCS thing correctly   Go back to settings -  passwords and switch it back to  Remember on disk   then apply ok

This is how I solved it on Windows  I have git installed separately  and Idea just picks git s options automatically  Default Idea config  as I would get from clean installer    Open the project in the command line  Make some changes there  And commit and push files via git which is installed on my machine  During push it will open a windows asking me to enter username and password  After that  when I make a commit-push from idea  it will simply work

For MACOS users  if you see credentials failed but you are sure that is is working previously then   probably you made a software update to the system  System uses git bundled with xcode  its better to open Xcode and click install extra components on startup of xcode  it will say installing components  when you accept the license agreement if will start working again   in short   open Xcode  install additional ompoenents  accept user licence agreement
