Thanks for adding this - I think it'll be especially helpful to folks who are just getting started or are curious about what else is out there. Added a few minor suggestions, but my local testing looked good overall.

Changes all look great to me - however, I'm not able to approve so will look to @ttaylorr to do so.

New page listing available credential helpers
The aim of this change is to introduce a discoverable, helpful, community-maintained, comprehensive list of credential helpers. Questions about Git credentials such as https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35942754/how-can-i-save-username-and-password-in-git (3.5m views) are among the most viewed questions on StackOverflow. Users are desperate for information about credential helpers, but the Git docs only discuss credential-cache and credential-store
