Is it me or is the only way to clear a single invalid password out of the
credential-cache is by "git credential-cache exit"?

Try the "reject" action:
$ : remember a credential
$ url() { echo url=https://example.com; }
$ (url; echo username=me; echo password=foo) | git credential-cache store
$ : get it again
$ url | git credential-cache get
username=me
password=foo
$ : forget it
$ url | git credential-cache erase
$ : now produces nothing
$ url | git credential-cache get
Git should do this for you automatically if it tries to use the password
and gets rejected (but only if the rejection is a password rejection,
like an HTTP 401).
