I have enabled SSO for my organization and created a user. The user has admin rights to a sub account and is able to clone a repo via terminal. The problem is when I am trying to use GitHub Desktop to clone (or do anything) it asks for a username and password which I have no idea what they are.
Doesn't the GitHub Dekstop use the same git commands under the hood and therefore the aws credential helper for git?
I'd also like to know if there is a better way to manage which profile to use with git other than running git config --global credential.helper '!aws2 --profile my-profile codecommit credential-helper $@'
every time I want to deal with a repo from different account.
From IAM, click Users(on the left bar) -> find and click your user -> Security credentials tab -> scroll down to "HTTPS Git credentials for AWS CodeCommit" -> in the Actions dropdown, you can reset your password.
Also, below that Actions dropdown, you'll see your username listed.
