Hi:
Lately, I have to enter my github username and password every time I commit;
git used to just remember these. I suppose it is in a hidden config file
somewhere but I don’t know where.
Could some kind soul please give me directions in suitably small words for
someone of limited git understanding? ;)
You want git installed with the credential_osxkeychain variant, which is
default. Then you want this in your git config:
[credential]
helper = osxkeychain
Then it should Just Work (at most you might get a Keychain unlock dialog).
