Authentication not working for some reason

[grisaitis]

probably making a simple mistake but no idea how to make this work:

Steps I took:

1. downloaded the release and extracted the binary to ~/.local/bin, which is in my $PATH
2. configured as per README (git config --global --unset-all credential.helper, etc. )
3. did git push for a repo
4. opened the URL
5. granted this repo access to my account and organization
6. re-opened the URL... following screen shows up
7. retry git push
8. open URL... same thing

my environment:

• on saturn cloud, inside a docker container
• ubuntu 20.04
• bash
• git version 2.25.1

~/.gitconfig has:

[credential]
        helper = cache --timeout 7200
        helper = oauth

this tool looks amazing. any help appreciated to make it work in my environment!

Hello first user to make contact!

exec: "open": executable file not found in $PATH

This fatal error closes the application and local server. I mistakenly assumed /usr/bin/open to be universal. Try installing package xdg-utils.

I'll relax the assumption.

i'll try this soon and circle back!
