feature needed imap-send pass as cli switch

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I tend to have my .gitconfig shared on github with a bunch of other
config files and this has been ok, until submitting a patch here I
needed to use imap-send, and the only way I see in the documentation
is to put my email password in .gitconfig, obviously I can't push this
up to my remote as I usually do. I'd like to see an option to pass the
password on the cli, either as an input prompt or as just an argument
to an option, or both. I think storing it in the config file is a
security risk, storing passwords in plaintext is just bad practice.

if it's already possible could someone share how with me? and perhaps
patch the documentation to include how.
