There are different possibilities why you are not getting access to the repo:

1) First ensure that the remote is correct:

git remote -v

Verify that it points to the correct github repo

2) Make sure that your username and email in git config are right using

git config user.email

If they are different from your github account, correct them using

git config user.email "<your email associated with github">

3) Make sure your password is correct: You can update your password using:

git config --global user.password
git remote set-url origin https://[email protected]/<user-name>/<repo-name>.git
