Apologies if this has been asked before, but we are having difficulty in binding a Flare project to Git.

We are using Flare 2019 running under Windows 7

The Git repository is located on: ssh://gitolite3@git@<companyname>.co.uk/techpubs

I have both SSH public and private keys supplied by our Sys Admin.

Flare appears to create a local Git repository, but Pushing or Synchronizing doesn't work and we get the following error:

"Error occurred in LibGit2Sharp : username does not match previous request"

Any assistance gratefully received.

I had the same issue back in January, which I documented here:

viewtopic.php?f=68&t=31195

As it turned out, it was a two-factor authentication (2FA), which our Git repository requires but Flare does not support. I had two create the following files :

• id_rsa
• id_rsa.pub
