Unable to authorize GitHub password (Unathorized/Not Found)

[flyingduck92]

I already put an alias for hub on my
.bashrc
alias git=hub

But when I want to create a repos my credentials always failed

Command attempted:
git create jam_hub
github.com username: flyingduck92
github.com password for flyingduck92 (never stored):

What happened:
Error creating repository: Unauthorized (HTTP 401)
Bad credentials. The API can't be accessed using username/password authentication. Please create a personal access token to access this endpoint: http://github.com/settings/tokens

More info:
git version 2.29.1.windows.1
hub version 2.14.2

I had the same issue. I went to the github tokens link provided and made a token, and now it works.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience. GitHub deprecated its Authorizations API, which hub relied on for exchanging a password for a token.

Until we fix this in hub, the solution is to generate a Personal Access Token (with at least repo scope) at https://github.com/settings/tokens and paste it instead of the password.

This didn't fix it for me. Error stays the same. I will try to find a fix.
