Re: disable interactive prompting

[Ernesto Alfonso <erjoalgo@gmail.com>]

Hi,

The prompt asks for my https username/password:


> $ grv
> origin	https://github.com/user/dotemacs (fetch)
> origin	https://github.com/user/dotemacs (push)
> $ gpom
> [1] 22549
> $ Username for 'https://github.com': 
> $ fg
> { git push origin master &>/dev/null < /dev/null; LAST=$?; test 0 -eq $LAST || echo "gpom failed with $LAST !"; }
> Password for 'https://asd,csd@github.com': 
> gpom failed with 128 !
> $ 


Thanks,

Ernesto
