Yesterday I was trying to test the librarian release init -push command and it was failing with auth issues until a created a fresh HTTP git remote for the repo I was working in. I believe the culprit area of the code is here:

librarian/internal/gitrepo/gitrepo.go

Lines 449 to 457 in f2d1a10

if r.gitPassword != "" {
slog.Info("Authenticating with basic auth")
auth = &httpAuth.BasicAuth{
// GitHub's authentication needs the username set to a non-empty value, but
// it does not need to match the token
Username: "cloud-sdk-librarian",
Password: r.gitPassword,
}
}

It would be great if we can better support SSH remotes.
