This application is a small helper app designed to follow the git credentials API as defined by the Git Documentation.
A cleaner installer is coming soon, but for now...
- Download the git-credential-winstore.exe file from the downloads section
- Put it in your path
- Run "git config credential.helper winstore"
Make sure you're running the latest version of msysgit. The credential API is fairly new. I've tested this on version 1.7.10.
This app just uses the existing Windows Credential Store to hold your credentials. You can see the stored credentials by going to Control Panel > User Accounts > Credential Manager and choosing "Windows Credentials". The entries starting "git:" are from git-credential-winstore.
That's not a question.
