Supposed to work "Magically" - does not work at all (or I dont understand how it's supposed to work)

I am not entirely sure how this is supposed to work.

I am connected with git using my work credentials to DevOps.

I now wwant to use a different account with gitlab.

Installed and tried to clone - no cigar.

Here's the relevant output from git config --list --show-origin

file:C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64/etc/gitconfig credential.helper=manager file:C:/Users/[MyAlias]/.gitconfig credential.helper=manager

What should I be trying?

@shaharprish there is exactly one way how it works, but there are literally a million ways it can fail.

To identify the one way it fails for you, would you be able to provide more details how it fails? Like, describe exactly what happens, run it with GCM_TRACE=1 and provide that output, maybe even throw in a screenshot or two?
