Thanks for your reply. I have activated GIT_TRACE_CURL=1 and I can see
that the request is failing 401.
I can't see which token is used and using what header ?
The log say:
17:50:26.414654 http.c:657 => Send header: Authorization: Basic <redacted>
I have retested the token locally and it work when used in the url or
using `Private-Token: <token>` as stated in the Gitlab documentation
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/api/README.html#personal-access-tokens
Peff, what would be the appropriate way to input my git credential in a
100% success way in a CI?
Is this good:
git credential approve <<EOF
protocol=https
host=example.com
username=bob
password=secr3t
OEF
?
I would use the custom helper after I can understand how to properly use
the git credential store in a CI environment. The fact that I am using a
generated file is simply because this is what the documentation told me
to do. I did not found anywhere in the doc how I should create that file
in a non tty terminal.
Thanks again for your help.

Can you please help me found why is git credential-store erase called ?
This is expected. We tried to use a credential that was rejected by the
server, so we told all of the helpers it was invalid. You can try
running GIT_TRACE_CURL=1 to see the HTTP conversation. There will be an
HTTP 401 with the authentication failure, though it may not tell you
anything more useful than that.
git-credential-store is meant to be used interactively, to insert and
erase credentials as they're grabbed from the terminal.
It sounds more like you want to just have a stored credential that you
try to use. You could do that with a custom helper. E.g., something like
this in your ~/.gitconfig:
[credential "https://example.com";]
helper = "!f() { test $1 = get && echo password=$(cat /path/with/password); }; f"
