GitHub account on Xcode 10.2 not available

0

I noticed a strange behaviour in my Xcode (v10.2, running on a 2016 MacBook Pro with macOS 10.14.4). I have most of my projects under source control with a local Git repository. I then create a remote to GitHub via Xcode and commit and push from the source control menu.

Since yesterday every time I committed I got asked for my username and password. At first I thought it was something normal due to some connectivity issue but then the issue persisted and, going to Xcode Preferences > accounts I noticed that my GitHub account was greyed out and, upon selecting it (or trying to) the right side of the window showed this message:

Account Unavailable Your account details could not be loaded because Accountname support is currently unavailable

At this point it is impossible to remove my GitHub account from Xcode in order to add it once more and it is also impossible to add any source control account, as if something with version control in general would be very broken. I thought it an issue with my SSH key for GitHub so I went on and scrapped the old one and generated a new one. The account stayed on "Loading" for a good minute and then the same message presented itself once more.

I really have no idea what to do here.

What is causing this and how do I get out of it?
