RE: git client enhancement request

I have to interject here that the git client doing a push must be fully
authenticated which implies to me that all the information required is
available to do so and allow the server repository to be updated.

Not just "storage implementation", but some things are totally kept outside
the control of Git proper, including user and repository management.
Creating, deleting, and modifying authentication and authorization details
of these things are outside the scope of Git, and forges build on their
competing designs.
