Git Credential Manager Lib

This project uses SponsorLink and may issue IDE-only warnings if no active sponsorship is detected.

Packages the official Git Credential Manager cross-platform credential store implementation supporting Windows, macOS and Linux for use as a NS2.0 library with no UI or external dependencies.

Release version numbers track the GCM releases themselves.

Usage

using GitCredentialManager;
...

ICredentialStore store = CredentialManager.Create("myapp");

// Store a credential
store.AddOrUpdate("https://foo.com", "myusr", "mypwd");

// Retrieve a credential
ICredential cred = store.Get("https://foo.com", "myusr");

Assert.Equal("myusr", cred.Account);
Assert.Equal("mypwd", cred.Password);

The namespace for the CredentialManager static factory class is the same as the official GCM itself for convenience: GitCredentialManager.

The optional namespace argument (myapp above) can be used to scope credential operations to your own app/service.

The library targets .NET Standard 2.0 for broad applicability.

Supported credential stores and their configuration is shared with the GCM project itself.
