git clone https://github.com/Xasitr/Xastir
Cloning into 'Xastir'...
Username for 'https://github.com': (cursor..I hit enter)
Password for 'https://github.com': (cursor..I hit enter)
fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://github.com/Xastir/Xastir/'
Same thing happens if I use https://www........
Until today's attempt, it always jumped from the "Cloning" line to
pulling down files...and this is a fresh Gentoo install so there's no
GIT config files at all..never had to use them to just pull a copy down...
