You can either:

use the ssh url (and make sure you are using a public/private key not passphrase-protected, or running an ssh-agent in order to cache the passphrase)
use a credential helper in order to cache the GitHub account password when using https url.
See for instance "Is there a way to skip password typing when using https:// github".
