Stuck on step 4

[zgall111]

I’m new to all of this and I’m definitely struggling. When I try to clone the github repo using git clone --recursive https://github.com/riffnshred/nhl-led-scoreboard, it asks me for my github username and password. When I enter my username and personal access token, I get “Authentication failed” error. Am I missing something?

Let me test this tonight, you should not have to authenticate.

I was just able to get in after setting up an SSH key and using that.
