I just hit another issue (I created another patch, but we might want to integrate it into the first one). This is especially needed if we want to apply my second patch in this mail.

We also do the wrong order for querying the password. if we want to adopt this, we should also update prompt.c, the make both prompt methods behave the same way again. The Git.pm part is easy, but I also tried to update prompt.c (untested).
