Feature Request Google Authenticator Support
Github supports google authenticator 2-step authentication. I enabled it and how can't figure out how to connect to my github account through git. I've looked pretty hard in the man pages and on google and can't seem to find anything on how to set up git to work with a repository with 2-step verification. Here's a link to my stackoverflow question with my exact problem if there's something I'm missing.

As far as I can tell the feature is not supported. I'd like to be able to use the 2-step authentication but obviously I'd like to be able to push my code :D
Thanks in advance,
Max Rahm

This sounds like a question for the GitHub support rather than the Git community.

Especially that Git prides itself that it does not do authenthication, but passes it to appropriate programs, SSH or web server (HTTP).
Own git:// protocol is unathenthicated.

Erik is right, for any GitHub questions, emailing [email protected] is way better than using this list. The answer to your question, however, is that you have to use a personal access token:

You can generate one from this page, in the "Personal Access Tokens"
section: https://github.com/settings/applications
Thanks!

I was under the impression that private key authentication worked regardless of two-factor authentication. Is using git over ssh an option for you?
