I forgot my password in git, such as resetting?

Thank You

Hi Luciano,

Git itself doesn't do any authentication, so I assume you lost the
password for an account on a hosted git solution such as gitlab or
github.

You should contact the support team of whatever hoster you use, the git
developers cannot help you here.

That is asking for your local computer password. This uninstaller also
has nothing to do with git itself, but with the third-party git package
you installed. The git project does not ship an 'uninstall.sh'
