How to delete the git credentials and prompt for password entry every time (Ubuntu environment)

Environment: Ubuntu Server 20.04
Symptom: When you do git push or git pull from bash, it seems that the login information is stored somewhere and you are not prompted for password authentication.I want to delete my credentials and ask for a password every time, but I don't know what to do.

Tried:

Run git config --global --unset credential.helper → No effect
Run git credential-cache exit→No effect
Delete ~/.git-credentials → File does not exist in the first place

git ubuntu

(Example of disabling locally only)

$git config --local credential.helper'"
