Answer 1

You mentioned you are trying to pull from git but the command is git push. Anyways, most probably you are getting this error because your repo url is not set locally.
If this is the first time you are sending git request from your system, you might want to setup your username by git config --global user.name "John Doe"
If you have already used git on your system, try checking the git configuration on your system using git config --list command to check whether your repo URL is setup or not.
If the url is not setup run git remote set-url origin https://github.com/www-prolificme-com/mahawiki/
Run git remote -v to verify if your url is setup
git add .
git commit -m "your message"
git push origin master

Remove/Update the saved credentials:

Search for 'Credential Manager'
Select 'Windows Credentials Manager' > 'Windows Credentials'
Search for the credentials that you want to remove/update
Click on the credential entry > Click 'Edit' or 'Remove'

I got this same problem then I try to this below command.
step 1:
git config --global user.email "user email"
step 2:
git config --global user.name "user name"
After running those commands, you can use this command to push your code:
git push origin master

Answer 5

Even if you set all credentials and other setups in the local machine, you might face this problem.
Currently, GitHub uses 'personal access token' so when or after creating personal access token you must check the Select scopes.
You select all you need and then push again.
It will be pushed successfully.

If nothing working please check if you have checked the below checkboxes while creating token
