Git client uses libcurl to implement its HTTP[S] transports, so read the
section titled "NETRC" in the cURL manual [1] to learn the correct
format.

Note that you might consider using transports different from HTTP[S]
for your repositories, for example, the ubiquitous SSH.  Googling
suggests that macs support SSH key agent, so using SSH transport is
easy.
