None of the hub commands are working somehow (and keep getting prompted username each time)

After a fresh install of hub via brew install hub, I go into a github repo and run the following command and get this error.

➜  alka git:(master) HUB_VERBOSE=1 hub browse
$ git rev-parse -q --git-dir
$ git symbolic-ref HEAD
$ git remote -v
$ git config --get-all hub.host
github.com username: tonyxiao
github.com password for tonyxiao (never stored):

Have the same issue. Did this ever get resolved for you?

Paste an Access token with read/write permissions as the password.

If somebody stumbles here from Google, using Github cli is a better alternative instead of hub, as the former is maintained.
