2013-02-01Documentation: the name of the system is 'Git', not 'git'Libravatar Thomas Ackermann1-3/+3

2012-08-08command-list: mention git-credential-* helpersLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
These commands were never added to the command-list. Adding them makes "make check-docs" run without complaint. While we're at it, let's capitalize the first letter of their one-line summaries to match the rest of the git manpages. The credential-cache--daemon command is somewhat special. It is already ignored by check-docs because it contains a "--", marking it as a non-interesting implementation detail. It is, in fact, documented, but since the documentation basically just redirects you to a more appropriate command anyway, let's explicitly omit it so it is not mentioned in git(1).

2011-12-12credentials: add "store" helperLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+75
This is like "cache", except that we actually put the credentials on disk. This can be terribly insecure, of course, but we do what we can to protect them by filesystem permissions, and we warn the user in the documentation. This is not unlike using .netrc to store entries, but it's a little more user-friendly. Instead of putting credentials in place ahead of time, we transparently store them after prompting the user for them once.
