[PATCH v2 2/3] git-core: Support retrieving passwords with GIT_ASKPASS

[Frank Li <lznuaa@gmail.com>]

imap-send and authority http connect reads passwords from an interactive
terminal. This behavious cause GUIs to hang waiting for git complete.

Fix this problem by allowing a password-retrieving command
to be specified in GIT_ASKPASS
