Description
there is no clear way to add an account via personal access token for a github.com account
Steps to reproduce:
- Tools -> Options -> Authentication -> Add
- select "GitHub" as the hosting service.
- Look at list of Authentication options
Currently the selectable Authentication options are "Basic" and "OAuth".
Desired solution: add: "personal access token" as a third selectable authentication option.
Other git software, such as git fork, has this option.
Workaround solution 1: At the very least there should be an official help article by Atlassian with step by step instructions on how to add an a GitHub personal access token account to Source Tree. Currently multiple people are posting different ways / workarounds in forums and they either don't work or are hard to follow.
