git password problem

I want to set my password on push only not for pull.

Is there any way to do that?

If you have two different ways of interacting with the remote repository, one of which requires a password (for pushing) and one of which doesn't (for pulling) you can do this:

[remote "origin"]
    # the lightweight git protocol doesn't use passwords
    # this will be used for fetch/pull
    url = "git://git.foobar.org/foobar"

    # this line is there by default; don't mess with it
    fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
    # SO, that's not a C comment... */

    # ssh requires password/key
    # this will be used for pushes
    pushurl = ssh://[email protected]/foobar

Substitute the correct URLs in there, and you should be good to go.
