We’re not going to expand the wiki to cover how to setup git-send-email for 
every email server.

If your MTA (like GMail) needs authenticated SMTP, then you need the password. 
If your MTA uses 2FA (like GMail) then you typically need an application 
password.  Generating this is step 2 of that SO page you linked to, although 
the use of git-credentials is overkill as you can just tell git the password 
the same way you tell it what sever to use.
