   1 credential.helper::
   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.
  11
  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.
  16
  17 credential.username::
  18         If no username is set for a network authentication, use this username
  19         by default. See credential.<context>.* below, and
  20         linkgit:gitcredentials[7].
  21
  22 credential.<url>.*::
  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
  27         matched.
  28
  29 credentialCache.ignoreSIGHUP::
  30         Tell git-credential-cache--daemon to ignore SIGHUP, instead of quitting.
