Within a Bash script, I need a way to login to my Bitbucket account using script commands

[Ned Tennant]

Inside my Bash script I issue the "git pull" command to update my sandbox repository but the command fails because I don't know the correct way to include my password with the "git pull" command.

This Bash script will become a Linux cron job for nightly execution, otherwise I would lust type the git pull on the command line and enter my password then execute the script.

Is there a way that I can use the git pull command along with my password inside my Bash script?

Thank You.

Is there a reason you can't use SSH?

No reason at all.

Thanks for your input.
