This is + normally the name of a credential helper with possible + arguments, but may also be an absolute path with arguments or, if + preceded by `!`, shell commands. ++ +Note that multiple helpers may be defined. See linkgit:gitcredentials[7] +for details and examples. + +credential.useHttpPath:: + When acquiring credentials, consider the "path" component of an http + or https URL to be important. Defaults to false. See + linkgit:gitcredentials[7] for more information. + +credential.username:: + If no username is set for a network authentication, use this username + by default. See credential.<context>.* below, and + linkgit:gitcredentials[7]. + +credential.<url>.*:: + Any of the credential.* options above can be applied selectively to + some credentials. For example "credential.https://example.com.username" + would set the default username only for https connections to + example.com. See linkgit:gitcredentials[7] for details on how URLs are + matched. + +credentialCache.ignoreSIGHUP:: + Tell git-credential-cache--daemon to ignore SIGHUP, instead of quitting. |
