Git-credential-manager: Secure, cross-platform Git credential storage

• 3np 2y ago
  Not a fan of the namesquatting or appeal to authority or whatever you want to call the branding... Their GitHub profile (https://github.com/git-ecosystem/ https://github.com/git-ecosystem/), with a logo anyone could mistake for the official git logo: Git Ecosystem Open source projects and tooling that support Git. Despite apparently so, AFAICT no affiliation to the git project. Turns out it's originally a Microsoft project [0]. ...So does Microsoft still manage the "github.com/git-ecosystem" org or has it been transitioned to new owners by now? [0]: https://github.com/Microsoft/git-credential-manager-core https://github.com/Microsoft/git-credential-manager-core

    I mean, "GitHub" itself is the same problem, as is their libgit2 library, and that whole morass is now also owned by Microsoft, who probably feels like they deserve it.

  Great little piece of software.

  when would you use this program? Editing a text file with includeIf is probably easier than some huge gui tool [includeIf "gitdir:~/code/"] path = ~/.gitconfig.d/personal
