automates the command to use whichever local branch you're currently in. Also yeah, it's what the error says.For developers, if you are using a password to authenticate Git operations with GitHub.com today, you must begin using a personal access token over HTTPS (recommended) or SSH key by August 13, 2021, to avoid disruption.
