Hi. Git 2.41 introduced credential attributes password_expiry_utc and
oauth_refresh_token [1]. Credential helper git-credential-osxkeychain
currently silently discards these attributes. Is any keen macOS
developer interested in adding support? This would greatly help
git-credential-oauth users on macOS [2].

Details: the design could follow git-credential-libsecret [3]. There
are already tests in t030-credential-external [4].

The work is small enough it might count as a microproject, though it's
atypical because it's platform specific to macOS.

Kind regards
