G'day! 

If you have configured an AppPassword but are still having issues authenticating, you will need to ensure that all of your remote configurations are updated to reflect this.

Therefore if you are authenticating to *GIT over HTTPS* to push/pull you will need to update your remote URL's to include the *AppPassword*:

git remote set-url origin https://USERNAME:APP_PASSWORD@bitbucket.org/workspaceID/reposlug.git

The same applies when performing git clone:

git clone https://USERNAME:APP_PASSWORD@bitbucket.org/workspaceID/reposlug.git

I would suggest ensuring also that all stored passwords related to authentication over GIT are cleared from your machine (ie Credential Manager for Windows, Access Keychain for Mac or /etc/shadow folder for Linux).

Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Hey again,

The only methods for cloning are HTTPS via App Password or via making use of SSH with a public/private keypair:
