vscode not showing git password prompt

There are two solutions I can think of:

• Set up an SSH key so that you never need credentials for accessing the server the remote repository is on
• Tell git to remember credentials when you type them in - this answer tells you how

EDIT:

Here is a quick recipe how to set up an SSH key for your git repo:

On the client side (where you cloned the repository)

• Check if you have an ssh key in ~/.ssh
• If not, generate an SSH key without passphrase using ssh-keygen (mine is called id_rsa)
• add this key to the authentication agent using ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa

On the remote side (where the repo is hosted)

• create the file ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
• into this file copy and past your public key, which you just created on the client side (mine is saved in ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub)

Afterwards try a git pull on the client side. It should not ask for a password anymore and pull/push from vscode should work as well
