Issue 113: Git on HTTP Basic Authentication repositories
http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/issues/detail?id=113
Comment #1 by piyokun:
Hello:
First, upgrade to the latest msysgit version "20080622". It will fix the
"immediately
closes the cmd.exe window" problem.
In [1] there is "Step 3: setup the client", which mentions a curl
command line to
check. Please try it. "curl --netrc --location -v
http://<username>@<servername>/my-new-repo.git/HEAD" This should tell
you if you have
a _netrc problem or not.
The _netrc can be created as follows when using "Git Bash here":
echo "machine mymachine login myusername password mysecretpassword" >
$HOME/_netrc
Also please make sure your _netrc file is UNIX line endings (LF only)
and there is no
trailing whitespace. The netrc format has the password field at the end and
whitespace, if any, is included in the password.
