See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug

Authentication error with GitLab.

Version & OS

  • OS: Windows 10
  • GitHub Desktop: Version 2.5.3

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  1. Just Clone with HTTPS any GitLab project for GitHub Desktop;
  2. It will ask you to login with GitLab;
  3. Then just make the changes you want to the project and then make a Commit & Pull Request for the project;
  4. In some moments, GitHub gives an authentication error and asks to log in again with the GitLab user and password data;

After logging in to GitLab for the first time through GitHub Desktop he should record the access data, not asking to log in again.

@crashzk is this still an issue for you? One other user encountered this and it was due to a GitLab username change.

@steveward I’ll check it out, I’ll delete the token and create it again and see if the problem continues.
