> I have recently discovered that github offers the ability to create a token with limited privileges which can be used for committing to git, as well as other actions. I don't know how much of it is standard git features vs. github features. But this is extremely convenient from a security / usability standpoints because it allows a person to have no real account information stored if they want to be able to work with a repository. And if the key leaks, it can be revoked.
> I would like to see this sort of support with git-wip.
