That should work...

Hmm. That sounds like it is treating "git credential-store get" as a
single executable name, rather than splitting it. I'm not sure how we'd
end up with such a bug, though.

Can you show us the contents of your ~/.gitconfig file? I'm wondering if
there's any funny quoting (there shouldn't be from the git-config
command you gave above, but maybe there's another stale entry or
something?).

Also, what does:

  GIT_TRACE=1 git push

say about what it's trying to execute?

And finally, does running:

  echo "url=https://example.com"; | git credential-store get

work? I wouldn't expect it to produce any output (since you'd have
nothing stored for that site), but it shouldn't give you the "no such
file or directory" complaint.

I think it is not complaining about finding the credential file, but
running the credential-store helper in the first place. The "cannot run"
message comes from our run-command.c code.
