Q:

Git shell prompts for password in an OpenSSH popup window

I don't know why, recently git shell asks me for credentials in an old-fashioned OpenSSH window (by the way, I use a https connection) instead of just prompting in the console. 
That prevents me to use the wincred, I always have to type my credentials.  Quite annoying, esecially that when I make a typo, the console cursor disappears.  How can I go back to the default mode? 
System: Windows 7

Console: ConEmu

Thanks for help! 

A:

Use $ git config --global core.askPass ""
You can also set credentials in your config to prevent being prompted every time (https://git-scm.com/docs/gitcredentials).

This could be also caused by Visual Studio Code.  If this is the case just add "git.autofetch": false into your setting.json file.
