Sounds like an issue with the path.

Could you go and follow the instructions here and take a screenshot of the git path on your desktop?

I can use git from any place in cmd window, it is in environment path. even in github desktop, i was able to do the authentication through command prompt as per the tutorial. I have a photo below of my vault and where the repo is stored.

I have discovered the problem and the solution. Windows credential manager had old credentials for the command given to create credentials. New credentials should be generated to fix this problem.
The command git config credential.helper store is a more up to date version I think of what is in the README.md of this repo.
So i deleted the windows credential from control panel for github, ran that command, then tried a git pull. It will ask for new credentials, input them, then obsidian git works as intended.

I'd rather not have git config credential.helper store as the recommended credential saving command in the tutorial, as it has clear security drawbacks https://git-scm.com/docs/git-credential-store

What can be done instead is opening the credential manager in windows and removing invalid credentials.
