When I enable two-factor authentication in Github, do I have to work with the RSA key to update the repositories?

When A2F (Authentication Two-Factor) is enabled the unique code is requested, I imagine that Git itself does not work with this, so I believe that in this scenario I am required to use a key authentication type, RSA type. Am I correct?

No thanks.

Using "A2F" (or 2FA or Two-factor Authentication ), you can work using the RSA key (SSH key) or via HTTPS.

If you want to use HTTPS, you need to create a personal access token that will be used as a password when authenticating via the command line using an https URL. In this way, the use of the token becomes transparent even if Git itself does not work with it.
