Git-bash credentials no longer working; fatal: HTTPRequestException encountered

[lstarky]

As of December 1, 2018, I am prompted to enter my credentials each time I do `git pull` or `git push`.  Until this time, my credentials were saved.  

$ git pull
fatal: HttpRequestException encountered.
An error occurred while sending the request.
error: unable to read askpass response from 'C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64/libexec/git-core/git-gui--askpass'
Password for 'https://lstarky@bitbucket.org':
Already up-to-date.

When I enter my credentials in the OpenSSH popup window, it successfully connects.

I'm aware of the end of TLS 1.0 and already checked to make sure my client is TLS 1.2 compatible, which I believe it is (it showed TLS 1.2 in the logs based on the recommended tests).  But I don't know enough to understand how to fix this.

Solved my own problem.  I had git version 2.13.2 and installed the latest version (2.19.2) from https://git-scm.com/download/win.  Works like a charm!
