Bitbucket login keeps popping up in Visual Studio Code

[GS]

Dear Team, 

I am facing multiple popups of login into bitbucket. I face almost 6-7 popups every time I use VS code and this is getting very annoying. Despite trying various methods. I have failed in getting rid of these popups.

Methods tried:

1. Reset user setting in Visual Studio Code
2. Uninstalled Bitbucket extensions and alias 
3. Upgrade the Studio
4. Login with my username and password. 

Versions:

Studio: 1.17.1
node: 16.13.0
npm: 8.1.0
CLI: 13.0.3

Please provide a solution to this problem.

I was having the same issue and fixed it with changes in my .gitconfig file.  Quoting the solution I used below along with a link to the original thread.

Two of the ways you can set these values:

• Edit your.gitconfigfile directly. On Windows it should be located at%userprofile%\.gitconfig
• Use git at the command prompt:
  • `git config --global --replace-all credential.interactive false`
  • `git config --global --replace-all credential.modalPrompt false`

These values can be added to .gitconfig file to overcome prompt:

[credential]
interactive = false
modalPrompt = false
