How to avoid username while doing git commit

Question

I have set user name and email by following these commands

$ git config --global user.name "Your Name"
$ git config --global user.email "your@email.address"

but whenever i commit the changes it asks for username always, I don't want to enter it always since it is set already.

The command should only ask for password not the user.

How to do this in git.

This is duplicate to : Git asks for username everytime I push

But better: use ssh instead of https
