osx - how to correctly setup credential-osxkeychain for git -


i have followed instructions on how set git integrate os x keychain git command. instructions password prompt should come once more, , keychain access window come up. password prompt up, keychain window did not. also, subsequent commands requiring authentication (to https:// url) came password prompt. none of these commands raised kind of error or warning went foul.

my question how can git command use keychain https:// requests, dont have retype username , password?

some useful command output follows:

$ ls $(dirname $(which git)) | grep git git git-credential-osxkeychain git-cvsserver git-receive-pack git-shell git-upload-archive git-upload-pack gitk $ git credential-osxkeychain usage: git credential-osxkeychain <get|store|erase> $ git config --global credential.helper osxkeychain $ uname -a darwin mac-alex 11.4.2 darwin kernel version 11.4.2: thu aug 23 16:25:48 pdt 2012; root:xnu-1699.32.7~1/release_x86_64 x86_64 $ git --version git version 1.7.5.4 

you need newer version of git. credential helpers aren't supported until git 1.7.10.
