git config username and password

Setting Git Config Username and Password in C++

To set your Git config username and password, you can follow these steps:

1. Set Username:shell git config --global user.name "YourUsername"

This command sets the global Git username to "YourUsername".

1. Set Password: Git does not store passwords directly, but you can use a credential helper to store your password. For example, you can use the following command to enable the credential helper: shell git config --global credential.helper store

After running this command, the next time you enter your username and password, Git will prompt you to save them, and they will be stored in a plaintext file on your computer.

These steps will set your Git config username and enable the storing of your password using a credential helper.
