I try to push my code to newly created GitHub repository. I used different account for this repo and after attaching my local git to remote and trying to push I get an error:

remote: Permission to repo denied to me. fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/link': The requested URL returned error: 403

This message I receive after

   git push --set-upstream origin master

I understand from this - my previously saved settings store name / pass to my previous account. Is it right? Where can I find them?

Next question - how can I solve this? Thanks

Did you add your SSH key to the new github account? – Jonathan Hall Apr 30 '17 at 19:48
Are both accounts contributer of your repository? Maby this will help. – H. Pauwelyn Apr 30 '17 at 19:49
no, I have not done this – Casey Monta Apr 30 '17 at 19:49
this is newly created account, it's not related to my previous one in any way – Casey Monta Apr 30 '17 at 19:49
Are you trying to access your new repo via SSH or via HTTPS? Look at this link https://help.github.com/articles/testing-your-ssh-connection/ and this one https://help.github.com/articles/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/ – Manuel Schmidt Apr 30 '17 at 21:26
If your're using git via https and a credential helper to store your credentials, you could find here some help: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15381198/remove-credentials-from-git – Manuel Schmidt Apr 30 '17 at 21:49
