That's a question for the configuration parser, right? I don't have an informed opinion on how it should be implemented, and am OK with any syntax to clear a variable.

Maybe the empty string (as > suggested) or "none" could be acceptable. Whatever you do, I do not think introducing a per-variable hack [credential] helper = none ;# or "helper = clear" helper = mine ;# this is the only thing I use like that is a sane way to go. "Clear everything you saw so far" would be useful for variables other than "credential.helper"; shouldn't it be done by adding a general syntax to the configuration file format and teach the configuration parser to clear the cumulative definitions so far? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Maybe the empty string (as suggested) or "none" could be acceptable. "none" seems friendlier and is very unlikely to collide with an actual credential helper.
