https+auth: use a ~/.git-credentials file if it exists to fetch credentials (!76) · Merge requests · mercurial / hg-git

Georges Racinet requested to merge topic/default/git-credentials into branch/default Jan 09, 2021

In some situations we code the plain auth-less uri in the hgrc paths section (for convenience) and want to use a centrally-stored credentials file.

Though it is possible to use the hgrc [auth] section, it would be also nice to access .git-credentials (still usefull for git direct access), avoiding double maintenance of credentials.

This probably does not cover all possible situations with git credentials handling but it provides a working base.

closes #305 (closed)
