GitHub Authentication Policy Changes Coming August 2021
If you’ve already connected your GitHub integration via OAuth in GitKraken, you’re good to go! GitHub is changing its security policy and will no longer allow username/password-only access. This change goes into effect on August 13th, 2021, and affects all desktop Git applications that offer a GitHub integration, including GitKraken. Users who have already authenticated to GitHub using OAuth will be unaffected. OAuth is the default connection method within your GitKraken profile settings.
