Package: git
Version: 1:2.20.1-2+deb10u3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

the vulnerability in CVE-2020-11008 is related to the handling
of credential helpers in git. In Buster this has been fixed in
1:2.20.1-2+deb10u3. This broke my existing configuration where
repositories have credential.helper=store set. This is
documented in /usr/share/man/man1/git-credential-store.1.gz
and other files from git, git-doc etc.
I am unsure how to proceed... is this helper now unsupported?
Is this a simple regression that should be fixed?
Do other alternatives like git-credential-cache still work or
are they broken as well?
