Change remote repository credentials (authenticati

Question

I recently changed my Bitbucket password for security reasons. However, IntelliJ didn't update my repository to the new credentials, so it stops me from pulling/pushing anything to my repository. I am not using any plugins for this, just the integrated VCS operations inside the IDE.

Every time I pull/push, this pops out:

fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://momothereal:[e-mail]/team/repo.git/

Where xxxxxxxxxxxx is my old password. I think changing this remote address with the correct password would fix it, though I cannot find where to do so.
