Password authintication problem

Hello, As I was following the video, I have encountered a problem with my password type-in. It wouldn't let me type in anything there. I have found out that Github disabled password authentication for Git operations over HTTPS. I was stuck in the middle of doing my lesson.

Thank you! Yana K.

Hey there Yana Kaytmazova ! 👋

Yes, unfortunately GitHub has since changed their authentication method to use Personal Access Tokens. There is a link in the Teacher's Notes below the video, but I'll provide it for you here as well.
