I use WSL with Ubuntu 20.04.6 and I use VSCode 1.91.1. I’m trying to authenticate with git push within my built-in VSCode terminal. Each time I try to do this, I am instantly hit with:

remote: Invalid username or password.
fatal: Authentication failed for 'MY REPO'

but, outside of VSCode, within a regular WSL terminal, I am able to enter my username and token like normal.

I know that I need a personal access token. I have this. I am able to enter my username and token when I am outside of my VSCode instance.

My ~/.gitconfig file is empty, and my ~/.ssh/config file is empty. I just restarted my computer and the problem persists. This feels like there is some VSCode config file causing a problem that I am overlooking.

Any thoughts why the built-in VSCode terminal instantly fails authentication whereas a normal terminal outside of VSCode allows me to authenticate upon git push like normal?
