[git-users] git pull username & password prompt

[Philipp Kraus]

Hello,

I'm using HTTPS (smart-http) for push/pull data to a Git repo. On push the 
Git client prompts for username and password, after inserting the data will 
be send.
On pulling I must set the origin URL to 
https://username:password@myserver/my.git, if I remove the 
username:password@ prefix the Git client creates a 401
error (authentification error). Can I tell the Git client (Linux & OSX), 
that it should prompt on each push and pull for username and password? I 
wouldn't like
to store the username and password within the .git/config file.

Thanks

Phil
