remove git username form git bash

Question

I tried to clone a repository from git bash using similar command to this command.

      git clone ssh://server.net/team/git/gui.git

then it asked the username and password. i entered wrong user name with password. then later i tried to clone that repository using same command. but it is not asking for username. it just ask password for [email protected](here username is the one i entered for username first time). so i can't clone that repo. how can i remove that user([email protected])?
thanks.

yep. there is .git folder and .gitconfig file. thanks you. i got it worked.thanks again. — Kelum Deshapriya

You can provide a user in the clone URL:

ssh://[user@]host.xz[:port]/path/to/repo.git/

Try cloning like so:

git clone ssh://[email protected]/team/git/gui.git/
