2011-12-12contrib: add credential helper for OS X KeychainLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+14
With this installed in your $PATH, you can store git-over-http passwords in your keychain by doing: git config credential.helper osxkeychain The code is based in large part on the work of Jay Soffian, who wrote the helper originally for the initial, unpublished version of the credential helper protocol. This version will pass t0303 if you do: GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER=osxkeychain \ GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER_SETUP="export HOME=$HOME" \ ./t0303-credential-external.sh The "HOME" setup is unfortunately necessary. The test scripts set HOME to the trash directory, but this causes the keychain API to complain. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
