Is it possible to set a default username (i.e.: my Github user name) for magit? It is prompting for the user every time I have to push a commit.
Don't know if this may help with the answer, but I already have my username and my e-mail in ~/.gitconfig as per magit's manual:
The default is determined by the
user.nameanduser.emailgit configuration settings.
user.name in your .gitconfig is only for authorship of commits, and not used for authentication. It seems you are using password authentication before pushing to github.
