This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) with GitHub in SourceTree
I set up 2FA for GitHub with a Yubikey this works fine when I use git from the command line.
But when I use it with SoureTree I get an error message:
git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false -c credential.helper=sourcetree push -v origin refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master Pushing to git@github.com:the4thfloor/test.git Permission denied (publickey). fatal: Could not read from remote repository. Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.

Pushing to git@github.com:the4thfloor/test.git Permission denied (publickey). fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

When I call this command on command line I get this output
$ git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false -c credential.helper=sourcetree push -v origin refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master Pushing to git@github.com:the4thfloor/test.git Counting objects: 3, done.

What can I do?
This does still does not work reliably.
This remains a terrible and broken user experience.
You are forcing people to choose between good security (2FA) or using your software.
You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in. Otherwise, register and sign in.
Okay I got it. You have to use the access token as password (like it's described in the article).
The important part is that you have to access via https and not via ssh
But why can't SoureTree use the command line settings to access GitHUb?

2FA is not working with FreeOTP on Android. The code is accepted during setup but not for logon.
