Recently got a work laptop with my work git and github accounts are connected via SSH however I started doing personal work on my work laptop and want to push to my personal github but I can't access it because it thinks I'm pushing from my work git. How do I fix this?

remote: Permission to Theqwertypusher/nextjs-blog.git denied to jvictor-wyze.
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/Theqwertypusher/nextjs-blog.git/': The requested URL returned error: 403

My git repo is set up like this origin https://github.com/Theqwertypusher/nextjs-blog.git (fetch)

Any help is greatly appreciated.

ssh github git

First, this has nothing to do with SSH, since the remote repository URL is an HTTPS one.

Check your credential helper:

git config credential.helper

If it returns, for instance, manager-core, type:

printf "protocol=https\nhost=github.com" | git-credential-manager-core erase

Then try to push again: a popup should ask you for your proper credentials (GitHub user account and password)

Replace "manager-core" by any other credential helper you might use.

If it does not find the git-credential-xxx executable, look for it in the Git installation path and use its full absolute path.
