Right now, there's no specific way to determine whether a credential helper or git credential itself supports a given set of capabilities. It would be helpful to have such a way, so let's let credential helpers and git credential take an argument, "capability", which has it list the capabilities and a version number on standard output. Specifically choose a format that is slightly different from regular credential output and assume that no capabilities are supported if a non-zero exit status occurs or the data deviates from the format. It is common for users to write small shell scripts as the argument to credential.helper, which will almost never be designed to emit capabilities. We want callers to gracefully handle this case by assuming that they are not capable of extended support because that is almost certainly the case, and specifying the error behavior up front does this and preserves backwards compatibility in a graceful way.

/**
|
|
* The credentials API provides an abstracted way of gathering username and
|
|
* password credentials from the user.
|
|
*
|
|
* Typical setup
|
|
* -------------
|
|
*
|
|
* ------------
|
|
* +-----------------------+
|
|
* | Git code (C) |--- to server requiring --->
|
|
* | | authentication
|
|
* |.......................|
|
|
* | C credential API |--- prompt ---> User
|
|
* +-----------------------+
|
|
* ^ |
|
|
* | pipe |
|
|
* | v
|
|
* +-----------------------+
|
|
* | Git credential helper |
|
|
* +-----------------------+
|
|
* ------------
|
|
*
|
|
* The Git code (typically a remote-helper) will call the C API to obtain
|
|
* credential data like a login/password pair (credential_fill). The
|
|
* API will itself call a remote helper (e.g. "git credential-cache" or
|
|
* "git credential-store") that may retrieve credential data from a
|
|
* store. If the credential helper cannot find the information, the C API
|
|
* will prompt the user. Then, the caller of the API takes care of
|
|
* contacting the server, and does the actual authentication.
|
|
*
|
|
* C API
|
|
* -----
|
|
*
|
|
* The credential C API is meant to be called by Git code which needs to
|
|
* acquire or store a credential. It is centered around an object
|
|
* representing a single credential and provides three basic operations:
|
|
* fill (acquire credentials by calling helpers and/or prompting the user),
|
|
* approve (mark a credential as successfully used so that it can be stored
|
|
* for later use), and reject (mark a credential as unsuccessful so that it
|
|
* can be erased from any persistent storage).
|
|
*
|
|
* Example
|
|
* ~~~~~~~
|
|
*
|
|
* The example below shows how the functions of the credential API could be
|
|
* used to login to a fictitious "foo" service on a remote host:
|
|
*
|
|
* -----------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
* int foo_login(struct foo_connection *f)
|
|
* {
|
|
* int status;
|
|
* // Create a credential with some context; we don't yet know the
|
|
* // username or password.
|
|
*
|
|
* struct credential c = CREDENTIAL_INIT;
|
|
* c.protocol = xstrdup("foo");
|
|
* c.host = xstrdup(f->hostname);
|
|
*
|
|
* // Fill in the username and password fields by contacting
|
|
* // helpers and/or asking the user. The function will die if it
|
|
* // fails.
|
|
* credential_fill(&c);
|
|
*
|
|
* // Otherwise, we have a username and password. Try to use it.
|
|
*
|
|
* status = send_foo_login(f, c.username, c.password);
|
|
* switch (status) {
|
|
* case FOO_OK:
|
|
* // It worked. Store the credential for later use.
|
|
* credential_accept(&c);
|
|
* break;
|
|
* case FOO_BAD_LOGIN:
|
|
* // Erase the credential from storage so we don't try it again.
|
|
* credential_reject(&c);
|
|
* break;
|
|
* default:
|
|
* // Some other error occurred. We don't know if the
|
|
* // credential is good or bad, so report nothing to the
|
|
* // credential subsystem.
|
|
* }
|
|
*
|
|
* // Free any associated resources.
|
|
* credential_clear(&c);
|
|
*
|
|
* return status;
|
|
* }
|
|
* -----------------------------------------------------------------------
