credential.helper:: Specify an external helper to be called when a username or password credential is needed; the helper may consult external storage to avoid prompting the user for the credentials. Note that multiple helpers may be defined. See linkgit:gitcredentials[7] for details. credential.useHttpPath:: When acquiring credentials, consider the "path" component of an http or https URL to be important. Defaults to false. See linkgit:gitcredentials[7] for more information. credential.username:: If no username is set for a network authentication, use this username by default. See credential.<context>.* below, and linkgit:gitcredentials[7]. credential.<url>.*:: Any of the credential.* options above can be applied selectively to some credentials. For example "credential.https://example.com.username" would set the default username only for https connections to example.com. See linkgit:gitcredentials[7] for details on how URLs are matched. credentialCache.ignoreSIGHUP:: Tell git-credential-cache--daemon to ignore SIGHUP, instead of quitting.
