We cannot get rid of <scheme>://<user>:<pass>@<host>/<path> right away, but I'd imagine that we'd prefer to see fewer places on the command line for users to leave the password that would end up in their .bashrc and other places. And I like the idea raised elsewhere in the thread to forward the <pass> to credential helper and leave ":<pass>" part out of the stored URL. Thanks.
