title: Visual studio code will not let me push anything to my repository
body: <p>I have created on online repository on github and the repository is set to private. I have some files that i wish to commit and push to this repository using visual studio code. I have successfully cloned the repository to my local device after making the repository public but as soon as I wish to commit any of my changes i get the following error </p>
  
  <pre><code>Git remote: permission denied to &lt;My username&gt; 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have tried entering the following command in the terminal. The username is the username of the person who created the repository. </p>
  
  <pre><code> git config --global user.name &lt;github userID&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But the same error still persists. Like i said the user Id i enter created the repository and i am unsure why it is denying me access to the repository. Do i need to login on visual studio code with my github account and if so how do i do that.</p>
