Why do I get a GitHub prompt every time I run documenter?
Even if I simply open make.jl I get the request.
Then I get a second window asking again for my github login and a third asking again for my password.
I can enter valid information or simply kill all windows, either ways it works. But I always get the message
```julia
Warning: Unable to determine HTML(edit_link = ...) from ...
Calling `git remote` failed with an exception....
```
I am working in Windows with VSCode.

This should have been fixed by [Documenter.jl#1797](https://github.com/JuliaDocs/Documenter.jl/pull/1797) and [Documenter.jl#1821](https://github.com/JuliaDocs/Documenter.jl/pull/1821). What version of Documenter are you using? An easy fix is to guard the call to `deploydocs` behind a check, for example only run it if `get(ENV, "CI", nothing) == "true"`.

Fixed indeed!
Thanks
