Remove git: 'credential-manager' is not a git command. From Mac

I ran the following on Git:

git config --global credential.helper manager

And now when doing a git push I get the error

git: 'credential-manager' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

How can I remove this?

You've specified the credential helper manager, which is not available on macOS, which is why you're seeing this message. Most macOS distributions of Git default to osxkeychain, which is the right choice.

To fix this, you can run this:

$ git config --global --unset credential.helper

If you then run git config credential.helper, you can see if there's a setting for osxkeychain, and if not, add one with a variant of your original command.
