Show HN: Git credential helper using OAuth in browser
62 by mattme | 8 comments on Hacker News.
I authenticate to many Git hosts from many machines and got tired of generating and copying personal access tokens. With credential helper git-credential-oauth, there are no personal access tokens or SSH keys to configure. Instead you authenticate in browser using OAuth. Git Credential Manager (included with Git for Windows) has a similar feature but it's awkward for Linux users to install. git-credential-oauth is cross platform and packaged in many Linux distributions.
