I was trying to install some GitHub repos as dependencies using composer. Composer kept getting stuck on installing the private ones.
composer.json:

"repositories": [ { "type": "vcs", "url": "git@github.com:inderpreet99/private.git" }],"require-dev": { "inderpreet99/private": "1.0.1"} |

Solution:
- Go to your GitHub profile.
- Under Developer Settings > Personal access tokens, generate a new token.
- In cli:
12
$exportGITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN="gibberisheaab78ab18285b9something"$ composer config -g github-oauth.github.com $GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN
Composer should work much more smoothly now.
