Git asks for password for each commit and pull

I am using Visual Studio 2012 with Git extension. I am using bit-bucket for storing project.

Each and every time - whenever I want to either push or pull Git ask me for account password in windows 8.

Thanks.

You can use gitcredentials and tell it to remember your password for some time

git config --global credential.helper "cache --timeout=time_in_seconds"

for example if you want it to remember for the next day it would be 60 * 60 * 24 = 86400 seconds, so the command would look like

git config --global credential.helper "cache --timeout=86400"

Hope this helps.
