Clear an invalid password out of the credential-cache?

Is it me or is the only way to clear a single invalid password out of the credential-cache is by "git credential-cache exit"?

Try the "reject" action:

  $ : remember a credential
  $ url() { echo url=https://example.com; }
  $ (url; echo username=me; echo password=foo) | git credential-cache store

  $ : get it again
  $ url | git credential-cache get
  username=me
  password=foo

  $ : forget it
  $ url | git credential-cache erase

  $ : now produces nothing
  $ url | git credential-cache get

Git should do this for you automatically if it tries to use the password and gets rejected (but only if the rejection is a password rejection, like an HTTP 401).
