How to re-authorize the OAuth Application ‘Git Credential Manager’

My company just enabled SSO for my Github Org overnight so was getting the same error running git pull. I fixed this with the following steps.

  1. Open Credential Manager in Windows and delete the existing credential for github.com
  2. Re-initialise the cred manager in git bash: git config --global credential.helper manager-core
  3. Re-run git pull and follow the pop-up instructions to authenticate in a browser (which happened automatically for me with SSO).

After those steps git commands worked for me again.
