----------------------------------------
Summary: Honor the credentials helper configuration in the global
or local gitconfig files. Needed for AWS CodeCommit repos.
Key: NETBEANS-362
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-362
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Bug
Components: versioncontrol - Git
Affects Versions: 8.2, 9.0
Reporter: Michael Andrews
Git does not honor the credentials helper configuration in the global or local
gitconfig files. This makes it impossible to push or pull to AWS CodeCommit
repositories as a federated AWS user.
>From the docs:
>[https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codecommit/latest/userguide/setting-up.html]
{quote}If you are connecting to AWS CodeCommit and AWS using federated access
or temporary credentials, or if you do not want to configure IAM users, you can
set up connections to AWS CodeCommit repositories using the credential helper
included in the AWS CLI. The credential helper allows Git to use HTTPS and a
cryptographically signed version of your IAM user credentials or Amazon EC2
instance role whenever Git needs to authenticate with AWS to interact with AWS
CodeCommit repositories. *This is the only connection method for AWS CodeCommit
repositories that does not require an IAM user, so it is the only method that
supports federated access and temporary credentials.*

Set up:
[https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codecommit/latest/userguide/setting-up-https-unixes.html#setting-up-https-unixes-credential-helper]
{quote}{{git config --global credential.helper '!aws codecommit
credential-helper $@' }}
{{git config --global credential.UseHttpPath true}}
{quote}
Without honoring the credentials helper config - git will simply try and
authenticate with a blank user and password. Which will not work.
