Git credential helper for bitwarden password manager

Get your git repository username and password automatically from bitwarden, so that you truly only need to know the master password when coding.

Requirements

Download the bitwarden cli: https://github.com/bitwarden/cli

Installation

1. Place the git-credential-bw script in your system path (for example in ~/.local/bin/)
2. Open a terminal and enter git config --global credential.helper bw
3. git pull and git push will now ask for your master password and retain your login information for 15min.

Information

The script is configured now to use git-credential-cache (https://git-scm.com/docs/git-credential-cache) to store logging information for later use. This mean the session key for bw doesn't need to be shared between instances and your vault is safe at all times. The login information however are available in plain text through git-credential-cache and thus this script (as git-credential-cache in general) should only be used on systems where you trust all people with access.
