I've got this same problem... I can't find how to specify the token instead of a password.

Please have a read of this topic from yesterday: [How to push Node-RED to GitHub using access tokens - #5 by portfedh](https://discourse.nodered.org/t/how-to-push-node-red-to-github-using-access-tokens/49796/6)

Complementing the other post, you use your username and input the token instead of a password when Node-Red asks for credentials.

If you don't know how to make a token, you can find that info [here](https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/creating-a-personal-access-token)
