Saving github auth info in Mac OS X keychain
over 1 year
ago
@felipeelias it's weird, maybe your mac os version? Anyway, you can still call security without the '-w' flag and use a program to filter the output, like this:
security find-generic-password -gs org.comum.lincoln.conf.github 2>/dev/stdout 1>/dev/null | sed 's/^password: \"\(.*\)\"/\1/g' | tr -d '\n'
Ugly but seems to work :)

@insomniacsoftware Nice resource! But actually this password is not for git itself, but for other github tools, like gist. Do you know if these tools support this stuff?
