SourceTree - git: fatal: remote error: Repository not found
Simple solution for me was that because the repo was a private repo.
I had to append my username and an at-symbol (@) before the git URL.
Set your remote to
https://[email protected]/YOUR_COMPANY_NAME/YOUR_REPO_NAME.git
instead of
https://github.com/YOUR_COMPANY_NAME/YOUR_REPO_NAME.git
Then enter your github user password upon eventual request.
Or rather use SSH instead
ssh://[email protected]/YOUR_COMPANY_NAME/YOUR_REPO_NAME.git
as HTTPS is to be deprecated soon.
I figured it out the issue. I already had a a personal github account linked to sourcetree. When i deleted the personal github account and added the work account it worked fine.
- Go to Tools -> Options
- Click on Authentication Tab
- Delete the other github account and add the new one
Had the same issue. The reason in my case was that I authenticated via https on command line but then used sourceTree via oAuth. Setting the Auth type to "Basic" in my Account settings helped.
I have experienced the problem on Windows (8.1 x64) with a more subtle reason. The problem stemmed from the use of git authentication hooks, like the git-credential-winstore (https://gitcredentialstore.codeplex.com/).
In order for it to work i simply removed my network password to github like this:
- Start menu
- Manage Network Passwords
- Removed my password for http://github.com
If you want to entirely remove the git credential store this SO post which may be of help: https://stackoverflow.com/a/18376438
