There are many people having this problem. I know it has been reported for a couple of times here: https://code.visualstudio.com/Issues/List It seems those tickets are not available on public. File a new bug. Hopefully they are going to fix it until the next release.

    As a temporary work around, you can replace `https://github.com/myname/myrepo.git/` with `git@github.com:myname/myrepo.git`. This will use SSH instead of HTTPS. You will need a private key on your computer that matches a public key in your GitHub account. – Zenexer Aug 27 '15 at 23:00

I just had a problem where I was receiving a similar error, and I found these articles resourceful to fix this issue.

Potential reasons for problem:

  1. Windows Credentials doesn't have the right Github credentials

Adding Git credentials on Windows

  1. Github deprecated password authentication and you now have to use Personal Access Token when pushing

Hope this is helpful to anyone else that comes across this post.
