G'day Andrew!

The most common issue customers are experiencing related to authentication in SourceTree is, as you stated, due to the deprecation of GIT username/password in favour of App Passwords:

We have a blog post however which explains the steps to troubleshoot this issue specifically for SourceTree, please follow these accordingly and this should resolve the issue:
