I recently tried to use this:
    git config --global credential.helper store
but whenever I run this:
    git push
I get this result:
    fatal: cannot run git credential-store get: No such file or directory

I have tried changing HOME value, as well as XDG_CONFIG_HOME, and it doesn't seem to change anything. I also tried manually creating the credentials file, to see if that would fix it, but error remains. I am using Git 2.33. I know this worked in the past, but it's been some years since I tried it.
