Implement minimal support for chained credential store helpers

Open jschlumpp opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Tools such as git-credential-oauth rely on a chained helper configuration to store the acquired credentials.

Unimplemented features in this PR:

This does not pass on properties other than username and password (Notable other properties would be password_expiry_utc, oauth_refresh_token).
It does not check the password_expiry_utc property, and instead relies on the timeout config of the cache helper.

Note: git-credential-oauth does not seem to make use of these features at the moment.

I don't need this anymore (I switched back to SSH keys). But if somebody wants to continue with this, feel free to reuse any code from this PR.
