Solution 1

Do as following:

Open Git repositories view, open "Remotes > origin > " and click "Change Credentials..."

Enjoy!

Solution 2

I resolved it by going to Preferences > General > Security > Secure Storage > Contens tab and deleting default secure storage for repository.

    I have a project hosted in googlecode with Git.

    I'm using STS (SpringSource Tool Suite) with eGit.

    I cloned the repository at home and I could commit & push the changes successfully. I did the same thing at work and when I try to push the changes after commiting them, it shows the following error:

    https://[email protected]/p/myproject/: Invalid username/password.
    You may need to use your generated googlecode.com password; see https://code.google.com/hosting/settings
    

    I entered the googlecode generated password when I first cloned the repository (as I did at home, and this error never showed up). I try entering it again and nothing changes.

    Does anyone know what could be causing this?

    Thanks!!
