This seems to be caused by the Keychain being in an invalid state, affecting applications that try to use the keychain to store or retrieve credentials. Seems to be specific to macOS High Sierra and Mojave.

Workaround:

• Open Keychain Access.app
• Right-click on the login keychain and try locking it
• Right-click on the login keychain and try unlocking it
• Sign into your GitHub account again

and it works like charm.
