Remove saved credentials from TortoiseGit

Normally the invalid credentials should be purged automatically (after one unsuccessful authentication attempt).

Go to the Windows Credential Manager (press Windows and type “Credential Manager”, or go to Control Panel\User Accounts and Family Safety\Credential Manager or use Start->Run rundll32.exe keymgr.dll,KRShowKeyMgr), there all saved credentials should be listed (prefixed with git:).

For ways to also remove saved credentials on other OS, see https://stackoverflow.com/a/39944557/3906760.
