This resulted in some m= agic (a browser window opened for me to login to GitHub to authenticate), a= fter which the push proceeded.

Well, it seems that GitHub does not allow username + password (credentials) auth, but oauth and ssh auth only. On windoze you were redirected to oauth, but that was no user credentials auth. Please try using ssh auth as descibed in other reply, this one should work out of the box on all client platforms and most servers :-) --=20 CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info
