GIT entered wrong password, can't clone anymore

I just wanted to make a clone of a private repositoy from Github, and the prompt showed up and asked for my login details.
I made a typo, but I don't get a second try. If I try to clone again I get the following message:
Cloning into 'name'...
remote: Invalid username or password.
fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://github.com/owner/name.git/'
I want to set a default password and username for my git, because I will only use 1 Github account. How do I get to set my username and password?
I found many things online, but none that were a clear command to set your credentials.
Thanks in advance
