They use the same credential store, and I actually tried to make sure they can use the same data. But apart from that, they work quite differently. My credential-helper only does storage, and passes the test-suite. The one you linked to seems to ignore any password being sent to it, and instead prompts the user if it doesn't already have a credential. It also does not seem to support storing credentials for multiple users for a domain/path. But probably the biggest problem for Git for Windows is that it's written in C#, and we don't have a C# compiler in our tool-chain. So I don't think there's much I can use from that helper, and I think my helper is in a healthier state. But I'm obviously biased. -- 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
