Description

Hi all! I just installed this plugin to a project that is already using git and is configured to push/pull with GitHub. Previously I had been using VSCode as my Git Client, but I'm trying to move more of my workflow directly into the Godot editor. I was able to make a few small commits with the plugin, and I added my id_rsa files to the VCS settings panel:

but when I try to push, I get this error message:
```
* core/variant/variant_utility.cpp:1091 - GitPlugin: Could not connect to remote "origin". Are your credentials correct? Try using a PAT token (in case you are using Github) as your password. Error -1: failed to set credentials: The parameter is incorrect.
* in godot-git-plugin\src\git_plugin.cpp:GitPlugin::_push#L532
```

Wondering if anybody has tips for troubleshooting? I'm not sure what a PAT token is or how to generate one. I'm open to trying that, but I'd also love to try and understand why this isn't working out-of-the-box
