This morning I updated Sourcetree.
When complete, it asked for a password (Which it never does under normal circumstances)
I skipped past it a couple times and eventually gave my Mac password
I believe it was asking for the SSH Passphrase - which I have since discovered
This allowed me to access the repository from the command line
But I can not access using Sourcetree
I have verified that the repo still exists, I have permission via SSH key
Is there a way to tell SourceTree the proper passphrase?
I get the following response on a fetch:
git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false -c credential.helper=sourcetree fetch origin
Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

Completed with errors, see above
I tried deleting the app and reinstalling, but it retained all my settings and the problem persisted.
I found this article: https://confluence.atlassian.com/sourcetreekb/how-to-wipe-sourcetree-preferences-412484640.html and removed the settings. When I added my first repo and fetched, it asked for the passphrase (The dialog is not very good at telling you what it is looking for) and now it works.
If there is an easier way that would be nice to add to this issue.
