Devin Lehmacher	60759baac1	credential-cache: use XDG_CACHE_HOME for socket Make git-credential-cache follow the XDG base path specification by default. This increases consistency with other applications and helps keep clutter out of users' home directories. Check the old socket location, ~/.git-credential-cache/, and use ~/.git-credential-cache/socket if that directory exists rather than forcing users who have used `git credential-cache` before to migrate to the new XDG compliant location. Otherwise use the socket $XDG_CACHE_HOME/git/credential/socket following XDG base path specification. Use the subdirectory credential/ in case other files are cached under $XDG_CACHE_HOME/git/ in the future and to make the socket's purpose clear.

Jon Griffiths	bd93b8d9be	credential-cache--daemon: disallow relative socket path Relative socket paths are dangerous since the user cannot generally control when the daemon starts (initially, after a timeout, kill or crash). Since the daemon creates but does not delete the socket directory, this could lead to spurious directory creation relative to the users cwd.

Jeff King	c6632eba5a	command-list: mention git-credential-* helpers These commands were never added to the command-list. Adding them makes "make check-docs" run without complaint. While we're at it, let's capitalize the first letter of their one-line summaries to match the rest of the git manpages. The credential-cache--daemon command is somewhat special. It is already ignored by check-docs because it contains a "--", marking it as a non-interesting implementation detail. It is, in fact, documented, but since the documentation basically just redirects you to a more appropriate command anyway, let's explicitly omit it so it is not mentioned in git(1).

Jeff King	e2770979fe	credentials: add "cache" helper If you access repositories over smart-http using http authentication, then it can be annoying to have git ask you for your password repeatedly. We cache credentials in memory, of course, but git is composed of many small programs. Having to input your password for each one can be frustrating. This patch introduces a credential helper that will cache passwords in memory for a short period of time.
