Recently came across the above error with Git when trying to push code upstream to GitHub while working on Visual Studio Code on Windows 11.
Came across a post on Stackoverflow that helped to identify the issue seems to be with Git Credential Manager v 2.39.0 which is installing along with the git install.
Workaround Fix:
Until a new release is available, below are some workarounds.
- Reinstall Git without selecting 'none' on the screen where have the option to "choose a Credential Manager"
- Rollback to Git version 2.38.x (older releases https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/
- Use GitHub Desktop application.
