Describe the Bug
I got locked out of my GitHub account and had to reset the password.
As a consequence, it stopped the connection between the Cursor projects and my repositories. I reinstated it, completely deleted the Cursor link in GitHub, and on settings.
When I open Settings > Applications > Connections and click connect to GitHub, it opens in Cursor in GitHub and successfully links the accounts - it’s definitely all repositories. Then, when I save it, restart everything, and try to connect within Cursor to a GitHub repository, it’s saying “add connection” and not letting me link.
I’m not too sure what to do next because I need to push my files and clone a repository. I’ve tried everything I can think of in terms of resetting, restarting, etc. I wonder if this was a known issue.
Steps to Reproduce
Not sure
Expected Behavior
It’s ideally supposed to connect Cursor to my GitHub account with Cursor already approved on GitHub, so that I can push, pull, and clone repositories as per usual.

Does this stop you from using Cursor
No - Cursor works, but with this issue
