I am using SourceTree.

`Tools > Options > Authentication > {Edit Account}`
I see `Authentication: OK`

`git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false fetch origin  
error: cannot open .git/FETCH_HEAD: Permission denied  
error: cannot open .git/FETCH_HEAD: Permission denied

Hello @OC2PS,

There's something wrong with the file permissions on your local file system. That Permission denied error is for accessing .git/FETCH_HEAD file.

I have no idea why this could happen, but I'd first try to clone the repository in question somewhere else and try the operation there.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Daniil
