Subject: Credential helpers processing order
Message-ID: <CAC+L6n0j0=6haBprM2ip75=orEi_5oBedHV1iPBTgi-N8Y6=4A@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

I wonder why credential helpers are called in the order: system,
global, local, command-line and not in the reverse order? This make it
impossible to provide a custom helper and disable default ones via
command-line parameter. My use-case is to clone a repository in a
non-interactive environment where a system-level GUI helper is
configured: clone hangs since system-level helper called first and
there is no input from the user. Also if a system-level helper sets
quit=true, then lower-level helpers won't be called at all. Is it by
design?
