If it is not, and the terminal is accessible, it might be a bug. There were some fixes around this area that went into 1.7.9; you might try using that version. Also, 1.7.9 ships with support for credential helper scripts, which can help you avoid putting in your password less frequently (see "git help credentials" in git 1.7.9). -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
