Hi,

I have an issue with Sourcetree V3.4.18 in combination with bitbucket.

I have setup following account in sourcetree:

Every day when I start sourcetree and try to i.e. fetach data from remote BB repository, I get the following error:

 

git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false --no-optional-locks push -v origin xxx/yyyy
remote: Invalid credentials
fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://bitbucket.org/xxxxxx/yyyyyy.git/'

Pushing to https://bitbucket.org/xxxxxxx/yyyyyyy.git
Completed with errors, see above.

If this error occures, I have to navigate to Menu -> Tools -> Options -> Authentication

and click on "Edit" for my account. After some seconds, the green "Authentication OK" checkbox is displayed and I can close the edit dialog (without changing any data!).

After these steps, I can work as expected with bitbucket and featch/pull/push data.
