Why need Username in degit ?

[NaokiM03]

I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with degit.

# npx degit sveltejs/templete .
npx: installed 1 in 1.046s
Username for 'https://github.com':

No need for other templete.
For example, template-webpack and component-template .

# npx degit sveltejs/template-webpack .
npx: installed 1 in 1.074s
> cloned sveltejs/template-webpack#master

# npx degit sveltejs/component-template .
npx: installed 1 in 1.567s
> cloned sveltejs/component-template#master

This isn't the correct place for support issues, and this isn't the degit project. You need to ensure your machine is correctly authorised with github and that your private keys are set up correctly - see the degit and github documentation

It's hard to understand why need GitHub authentication to use templete, but if that's the policy, it's understandable.
I'm not asking you how to authenticate to GitHub, I'm asking you why you need it for this project.

No need for other templete.
For example, template-webpack and component-template .

I'm really sorry. I just tested it again and I didn't need to authenticate. I don't know why, but I'm sorry for the hassle.

I read the degit source and found that I was in the wrong place to put up the Issue. Sorry about that.

your comment had a typo in npx degit sveltejs/templete where "templete" should be "template"

because sveltejs/templete (typo version) is not a public repository that could be why it's asking for authentication. hope that helps 🥰

Thank you. Time has melted……

I tried it from memory and hit the same thing, but my memory was at fault. This doesn't work:

npx degit svelte/template new-project

This does work:

npx degit sveltejs/template new-project

I just hope nobody in the svelte organization goes to the Dark Side and tries to host malicious versions of SvelteJS. 🏴‍☠️
