git push --set-upstream origin master

I am trying to git push to a remote server with this command git push --set-upstream origin master as instructed. it brings me to a place where I have to enter my username and password but I am unable to enter my password or token. When I hit my keyboard, nothing shows.
What am I doing wrong here?

vagrant@ubuntu-focal:~/zero_day$ git push --set-upstream origin master
Username for 'https://github.com':
Password for 'https://skibanj@github.com':

Honestly I am clueless but I am expecting my codes to push now so I wont have to push with any arguments again.

It looks like you are working with a remote repository which you cloned from github.com through https. If the repo is public, cloneing and fetching can be done anonymously, but pushing to github always require to authenticate -- with your github account.

The go to way when you need to push to github is to set up an ssh access and access github through ssh.

To do this:

• to set an ssh key linked to your account and set your own system to use it, check the procedure on github :

  Adding a new SSH key to your GitHub account

• to update your local repo to instruct git to access github through ssh, just change the url of your origin remote :

  git remote set-url origin git@github.com:<path/to/repo>
  

You may also go through authenticated https:

• if you don't push often, you may keep the workflow you show, the Username/Password that are asked are your credentials on github

• you may set things up in git to store or cache your password :
  see https://git-scm.com/docs/gitcredentials

I had the same problem. You should add the command "git push -u origin main" I hope it will work.
