Is this suited for github?

  • Yes, this is suited for github

To Reproduce

When I log in using my email password, I get the following error: ERROR [Better Auth]: Password not found { email: xxx }

So I went into node_modules and found out through printing that the password field was undefined, but the password field in the database did have a value. Why is that?
