Hi Dale,
what I'd like is a way to detect if credentials are necessary on a https repo, and add (or ask for them) at the smalltalk level.
Well the user should know from the get-go that they are using a private repo and if they supply an https: scheme then you can pretty much know that sooner or later you will need credentials
Ok.
It would then be easy to handle that in the https url. Would anyone know how to do that with Zn?
Take a look at MetacelloPharo30Platform>>downloadJSON:username:pass: for and example of how to download with HTTPS credentials using Zinc.
I'll have a look. I tried a few urls(*) on Sean bitbucket example, and the difficulty is that base access to the repository is open (without authentication) and I need to understand how git create a push request to generate an url triggering an authentication :(
(*) the response I got on those seems to be a login page instead of an authentication request :(
ah yes of course ... thus the need to use git credentials[1] ... Okay, I found GitHub documentation for "Caching Your GitHub password" for linux[2], windows[3], mac[4], and all[5]. these solutions are git-specific and not github specific so they should work for bitbucket just as well ...
