After updating to 2.2, SourceTree is asking me every time (and randomly while browsing repo) for password. I enter the password, and then it locks the UI (E.g. menu items are greyed out, even Help->Raise a support ticket). Clicking anywhere will result in hearing the error sound coming from the OS. "Solution" is to kill and restart sourcetree, until it asks you again for the password.
(Note that this also happened while installing 2.2, where it asked me to agree to the terms and conditions, and the tickbox was not clickding and only hearing an error sound. Had to kill and relaunch source tree).
I am reverting back to 2.1 until this is solved. That version was also asking me for password everytime, but at least only when pushing.

[SRCTREE-3426] Keeps asking me for password randomly and then locks UI
Hello everyone,
We updated GIT and the credentials helper in version 2.3. Would you please confirm if this is resolved with the latest version or if you still see this issue on 2.3?
Thanks!

added a comment - Asked me again on the same branch.
Guess the issue has not been fixed yet.

added a comment - Hmmm it did ask me when pushing on different branches of the same git repo. Pushing on the same branch didn't.
It is also asking to allow access to keychain a lot of times.

Will report at the end of the day if it asks me for any password

added a comment - Does that beta still have awful new design with blindfold icons?
In that case — NO, THANK YOU.
I better will stay on 2.1, which doesn't have this bug and have proper icons.

We have a beta available which has an updated git and the git-credential-osxkeychain. We believe this will fix the password issues. Please feel free to download the beta and let us know your feedback. You can download the beta from - https://bitbucket.org/atlassianlabs/sourcetree-betas/downloads
Thanks,

Yes, I haven't encounter this issue anymore in 2.3.
