Hi Anthony, I ran into this problem as well! There are instructions to creating a github token here: https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/creating-a-personal-access-token). For the scope, I did not check any boxes, though I'm not sure if that part was correct. It will generate you a string to use. In the specified directory, create a plain text file and paste the code inside and this should solve the problem (eg. touch github_token, vim github_token). Note that the .ssh file may be present but hidden in your home directory.
