Although I'm not familiar with the SecItem API nor with the Git
keychain API, I gave this series a readthrough and left a few minor
comments. Aside from a few very minor style nits, perhaps the only
substantive comment was that patch [1/4] could do a slightly better
job of protecting against future programmer error, but even that is
minor in that it doesn't impact the functionality actually implemented
by the patch, thus may not be worth a reroll.

Overall, despite not being familiar with the APIs in question,
everything I read in the patches made sense and was cleanly
implemented. Nicely done.
