Hello,
this thread seems to be stale, but I'd still like to have the libsecret
credential helper present in Debian repository.
I tested the submitted patch and did some adjustments so that the
package actually builds. I did it against 2.20 because I was not able to
find git branch for current stable 2.30.2, but when I tried on the
downloaded 2.30.2 sources, the patch applied with one minimal change.
I will be happy to modify to the last stable if you point me to it.
(The debian-stable branch points to 2.20).
I also tested the resulting 2.30 package on my Bullseye machine and it
installs and works fine (it's just not listed in `git help -a`, but I'm
not sure that it should be).
Can we ressurect the discussion and progress with this topic?
Best regards,
Vit Kabele

Create a new package git-libsecret that builds the libsecret
compatible git credentials helper as a new package.

+ .
+ Git falls in the category of distributed source code management tools.
+ Every Git working directory is a full-fledged repository with full

+ central server.

+ This package provides a helper for storing credentials using libsecret.
