Subject: [PATCHv2 0/7] getpass refactoring
Date: Thu, 8 Dec 2011 03:21:19 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111208082118.GA1507@sigill.intra.peff.net> (raw)
This is a re-roll of the earlier "echo usernames as they are typed"
series here:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/185970
It turns out that getpass() isn't even really good at getting passwords.
See patch 5/7 for details. This series replaces it entirely if you set
HAVE_DEV_TTY (otherwise, we continue to fallback to getpass()).
[1/7]: imap-send: avoid buffer overflow
[2/7]: imap-send: don't check return value of git_getpass
[3/7]: move git_getpass to its own source file
[4/7]: refactor git_getpass into generic prompt function
[5/7]: add generic terminal prompt function
[6/7]: prompt: use git_terminal_prompt
[7/7]: credential: use git_prompt instead of git_getpass
It should be applied on top of the jk/credentials topic.
