GitHub is a development platform, heavily related to tech though. People that are experienced enough to do git push can definitely manage API key-like passwords. This solution is not exactly suitable for any other industry, its literally a call for bankruptcy (unless you are B2B, and even with that, so many tickets, support overload...)

99% of their users, even 99.99% might be programmers, but I was involved with a project where most of the contributors were lawyers. Most of them could only use the GitHub web interface ('edit file', not even the VS Code one) to make changes, so making it easier for them to use git push would be advantageous for everyone involved.
