Can I use native git as client to contact a git server which does authentication with OAuth2 Client Credentials Grant [1]? Background: We are running gerrit based git servers [2] in a cloud environment. That environment supports OAuth2 authorization for the apps running in the cloud. The idea is that clients (e.g. jenkins jobs) talking git over http with such git servers should be able to use OAuth2 tokens to authenticate clone/fetch requests. We would have to adapt gerrit source code for token handling/validation but I am asking here about the client side. I know that other git server environments like github support that on client side by allowing tokens to be used as usernames in a BASIC authentication flow. We could do the same but I am asking whether there is also a way to transport tokens in a standard conform "Authorization: Bearer ..." Header field.
