2020-11-25crendential-store: use timeout when locking fileLibravatar Simão Afonso1-0/+6
When holding the lock for rewriting the credential file, use a timeout to avoid race conditions when the credentials file needs to be updated in parallel. An example would be doing `fetch --all` on a repository with several remotes that need credentials, using parallel fetching. The timeout can be configured using "credentialStore.lockTimeoutMS", defaulting to 1 second.

2020-05-06docs: document credential.helper allowed valuesLibravatar brian m. carlson1-3/+7
gitcredentials(7) already mentions several possible invocations that one can use as the value for credential.helper. However, many people are not aware that there are other options than a simple credential helper name, so let's place some explanatory text in the documentation for credential.helper as well. We still refer the user to gitcredential(7) for additional explanations and helpful examples.
