GCM 2.0.246-beta

Changes:

• Very early support for Linux (#135)
• Remove username/password authentication for GitHub.com (#171)
• Enables support for multiple users for GitHub, Bitbucket, and Azure Repos (when using the *.visualstudio.com URLs) (#160)
• Fixes bug where the username was required in the remote URL for basic auth (#142)
• Fixes bug where port numbers in remote URLs were not parsed correctly (#156)

The Linux support has currently only been tested on Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04 on 64-bit Intel processors. The provided Debian package is not yet signed. Due to the varied nature of Linux distributions, you will need to select and configure a credential storage system manually – see more here: https://aka.ms/gcmcore-linuxcredstores.

Now that OAuth has been fully adopted for GitHub.com and works for all users (personal and organizational alike), the username/password option has been removed. The username/password option will soon be removed from the server-side anyway – see more here: https://github.blog/changelog/2019-08-08-password-based-http-basic-authentication-deprecation-and-removal/.

Changes:

• Windows support (64-bit only) (#46)
• GCM Core now worked behind network proxies (configuration guide) (#11)
• Renamed the main executable from git-credential-manager to git-credential-manager-core to allow for easier side-by-side use with Java GCM and Windows GCM during the preview (#70)
• Microsoft authentication is performed in-process on Windows, with support for GUI-less environments (such as SSH) via device code flow (#75)
• Installation now configures GCM Core per-user (sets credential.helper in the current user's $HOME/.gitconfig) but continues to be installed in a system-wide location. Other users can opt-in to using GCM Core by setting their own configuration by running git-credential-manager-core configure (#57)
• Allow overriding the selection of host provider; also supports GitHub Enterprise scenarios (configuration option, migration guide for users of the credential.authority setting) (#59)
