Hi, I am Ivan Tham 谭俊浩, I know a bit of C and more in python, I am
currently taking foundation in a Asia Pacific University.

I would really like to work on this microproject for gsoc too but too 
bad
惠轶群 had taken it. :(

I think it should be in ~/$XDG_CACHE_HOME/git/credential or
~/.cache/git/credential instead of ~/.config/git/credential.
