Credential selector helper
I've just downloaded the source tree and everytime I create a new repository, I get this pop up message. I checked the internet and I got other variants but not this specific pop up message. Any idea what this might be?

Open Windows Powershell (Admin) from the Start Button context menu:
If it's not there, search for Windows PowerShell, click the > arrow and select Run as Administrator:
Run the following commands (in bold) excluding the #comments:
#Navigate to the SourceTree LocalAppData folder
cd $env:LOCALAPPDATA\Atlassian\SourceTree\git_local\mingw32\bin\
#Run git.exe to edit the config file
./git.exe config --edit --system
#This open a VI text editor
#Press the letter "I" on your keyboard to enter INSERT mode
#Update [credential] helper in the config file as shown in the screenshot above or below.
[credential]
helper = manager
#Press the "Esc" key on your keyboard until INSERT mode exits, then type :wq and press Enter. This "writes and quits" the VI Editor.
:wq
