Creating a Personal Access Token (PAT) and Pushing the Branch

✅ Status

• Implementation: COMPLETE ✓
• Commit created: 36d2fe6 ✓
• Push blocked by: Requires Personal Access Token (GitHub no longer supports password auth)

🔑 Step 1: Create a Personal Access Token

1. Go to: https://github.com/settings/tokens

2. Click "Generate new token" button

3. Select "Generate new token (classic)"

4. Fill in the form:

   • Token name: split-contracts-push (or any name you like)
   • Expiration: Choose 30/60/90 days or "No expiration"
   • Select scopes: Check the box for repo (full control of private repositories)

5. Click "Generate token" at the bottom

6. IMPORTANT: Copy the token immediately - GitHub will only show it once!

   • The token looks like: ghp_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
   • Save it somewhere safe (you'll need it in 2 minutes)

📌 Step 2: Push Using the Token

Open Command Prompt and run:

cd c:\Users\Admin\Desktop\StellarSplit\split-contracts

git config --global --unset credential.helper

git push https://johnsaviour56-ship-it:YOUR_TOKEN_HERE@github.com/johnsaviour56-ship-it/split-contracts.git add-fallback-action-for-auto-resolve:refs/heads/add-fallback-action-for-auto-resolve

git config --global credential.helper manager

Replace YOUR_TOKEN_HERE with the actual token you copied in Step 1.

Example (with fake token):

git push https://johnsaviour56-ship-it:ghp_abc123xyz789@github.com/johnsaviour56-ship-it/split-contracts.git add-fallback-action-for-auto-resolve:refs/heads/add-fallback-action-for-auto-resolve

✅ Verify Success

After pushing, check:

• GitHub URL: https://github.com/johnsaviour56-ship-it/split-contracts/tree/add-fallback-action-for-auto-resolve
• Or locally: git branch -vv should show the branch as tracked to origin

🔒 Security Notes

• Personal Access Tokens are temporary (expires after set date)
• Only use for this push - don't share it publicly
• You can delete/revoke the token later at https://github.com/settings/tokens
• For future pushes, you can use this same token or create new ones

❓ Troubleshooting

If push still fails:

1. Double-check the token is copied correctly (no extra spaces)
2. Make sure you're using the right GitHub username: johnsaviour56-ship-it
3. Verify the token has repo scope selected
4. Try creating a new token and try again

If you get "Element not found" error:

• Windows Credential Manager may still have old credentials cached
• Try: cmdkey /delete:git:https://github.com

✨ That's It!

Once you paste the token and run the push command, your branch will be on GitHub! 🎉
