Re: Problem with credential.helper=store in git 2.32.0.windows.2

[Sebastian Richter <Sebastian.Richter@HTW-Berlin.de>]

you are right, but during my (cluster) ssh connections no one else uses 
my systems (hopefully), and i do restore the system file afterwards.

But i'll implement your approach in the next script version.

Thanks & best Sebastian
