Flush Saved Git Credentials on OS X
I did not find anything on the web I thought I’d paste this here for anyone else running into this issue. I had to change the stored credentials for a git server and starting the OS X keychain failed with a strange error message that the stored password was bound to a specific user (which I naively assumed was me).
If you run into the same issue, you might want to erase all saved git credentials using the following command:
git-credential-osxkeychain erase
After that, you can enter your new/old credentials again after being prompted by git.
That’s it again,
