is it posible to access github private repository via maven?

[waleed]

When i try to add dependency from a public github repository, its worked ok. Example\[code\]<repository><id>https-levonk</id><url>https://github.com/levonk/pub-maven-repo/tree/master/release/</url>\[/code\]\[code\]<dependency><groupId>com.levonk</groupId><artifactId>codequality</artifactId><version>1.0.8</version>\[/code\]But when i try to make it to private repository and add my github account via \[code\]~m2/settings.xml\[/code\]. But It doesn't work.
