git config clear credentials code example

Example 1: git config credential.helper store

$ git config credential.helper store
$ git push http://example.com/repo.git
Username: <type your username>
Password: <type your password>

[several days later]
$ git push http://example.com/repo.git
[your credentials are used automatically]

Example 2: git credential cache

# Set credential cache to avoid typing password every time
# (Timeout time is in seconds i.e. 14 hours)
# For Ubuntu

git config credential.helper 'cache --timeout=50400'
