2 Specify an external helper to be called when a username or
3 password credential is needed; the helper may consult external
4 storage to avoid prompting the user for the credentials. This is
5 normally the name of a credential helper with possible
6 arguments, but may also be an absolute path with arguments or, if
7 preceded by `!`, shell commands.
9 Note that multiple helpers may be defined. See linkgit:gitcredentials[7]
10 for details and examples.
12 credential.useHttpPath::
13 When acquiring credentials, consider the "path" component of an http
14 or https URL to be important. Defaults to false. See
15 linkgit:gitcredentials[7] for more information.
18 If no username is set for a network authentication, use this username
19 by default. See credential.<context>.* below, and

23 Any of the credential.* options above can be applied selectively to
24 some credentials. For example "credential.https://example.com.username"
25 would set the default username only for https connections to
26 example.com. See linkgit:gitcredentials[7] for details on how URLs are

32 credentialStore.lockTimeoutMS::
33 The length of time, in milliseconds, for git-credential-store to retry
34 when trying to lock the credentials file. Value 0 means not to retry at
35 all; -1 means to try indefinitely. Default is 1000 (i.e., retry for
