Auth on Windows

[adam-lynch]

This looks great. How would the auth work on Windows?

I have not tested it on a windows system.
On Linux the child_process sends off the command to git, it then returns the output from git as the login prompt.
Testing that would be appreciated.

Prompting for credentials in the midst of a build is not a good idea. Most windows users use git-credential-winstore to store credentials in the Windows Credentials Vault. If you've installed Git Extensions or a semi-recent version of mSysGit, you likely already have it installed and configured. To modify your credentials go to Start -> Control Panel -> User Accounts -> choose your account on the right (you're probably already there) -> choose "Manage your credentials" on the left -> find your credentials in the list -> choose "Edit" or "Remove from Vault."

True, the plugin just runs git which may then ask for credentials.
