I tried to contribute to Bioconda. However, I got the following error:

What did I miss?

Thank you in advance.

CodePudding user response：

Double-check the "password" you have entered when trying to push back to your own repository.

Since Aug. 2021, you would need to use a PAT (Personal Access Token).

You can also, for testing, try with an SSH URL, provided you have registered a public SSH key to your profile.

CodePudding user response：

For pushing code into the repo, you need to add an SSH key to your GitHub.
