Cannot determine the organization name for this 'dev.azure.com' remote URL
Mar 14
So I just updated to a new Visual Studio version and I am no longer able to push/pull from/to my Azure Repo (cloning works fine). The exact error I get is
Cannot determine the organization name for this 'dev.azure.com' remote url. ensure the
credential.usehttppathconfiguration value is set, or set the organization name as the user in the remote url '{org}@dev.azure.com'.
and only the pull command shows me this error, all the others are failing with git fatal error. I messed with my Credentials Manager cos I suspected it might be the one causing the problem but no luck.

What fixed the issue for me is going to Tools > Options > Source Control > Git Global Settings, there I changed all 4 dropdowns which were still selected as "Unset":
- Prune remote branches during fetch - False
- Rebase local branch when pulling - False
- Cryptographic network provider - OpenSSL
- Credential helper - GCM Core
Note: These are the settings my organization requires. You might have to tweak them around according to your exact issue.
