# Git::Raw::Cred(3pm)

Git credentials class

## NAME

Git::Raw::Cred - Git credentials class

## VERSION

version 0.90

## DESCRIPTION

A Git::Raw::Cred object is used to store credentials.

**WARNING**: The API of this module is unstable and may change without warning (any change will be appropriately documented in the changelog).

## METHODS

### userpass( $user, $pass )

Create a new credential object with the given username and password.

### sshkey( $user, $public, $private \[, $pass \] )

Create a new credential object given a SSH public and private key files, and optionall the password of the private key. If the SSH support has not been enabled at build-time, this method will always return `"undef"`.

### sshagent( $user )

Create a new credential object used for querying an ssh-agent. If the SSH support has not been enabled at build-time, this method will always return `"undef"`.

### sshinteractive( $user, $callback )

Create a new credential object based on interactive authentication. The callback `$callback` will be invoked when the remote-side issues a challenge. It receives the following parameters: `$name`, `$instruction` and `@prompts`. Any of the parameters passed to the callback may be undefined. Each `$prompt` entry in `@prompts` is a hash reference that may contain:

- •

  "text"

  Text for the prompt.

- •

  "echo"

  Parameter indicating whether the response of the challenge is safe to be echoed.

The callback should return a list of responses, one for each prompt. If the SSH support has not been enabled at build-time, this method will always return `"undef"`.
