fatal: Authentication failed for (url of team project) I am using the commands:
git remote add origin https://XXXXXXX.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection/_git/project git push -u origin -–all Any idea of the fix for this?

From the Git menu, go to Settings. To set your user name and email at the global level, go to Git Global Settings; to set your user name and email at the repository level, go to Git Repository Settings. Provide your user name and email, then choose OK to save.
The Git Credential Manager is an optional tool that makes it easy to create PATs when you're working with Azure Repos. Sign in to the web portal, generate a token, and then use the token as your password when you're connecting to Azure Repos. PATs are generated on demand when you have the credential manager installed.
I had a same issue recently (visual studio 2017 & Windows 10), and solved it using the following method:
Control Panel --> Credential Manager --> Manage Windows Credentials --> Choose the entry of the git repository, and Edit the user and password.
Done.
