If you have 2FA enabled you can not use the user's password for git push, you have to create either app token in user settings or use that instead of password or use ssh protocol.

For some reason, the built-in SSH server in Gitea does not work in loopback mode on my server/router/cloudflare (does not connect at all), which is why I use HTTPS (i do not want to deal with this right now).

i will try app token, thanks!
