git-credential:tldr:1b66a
This command is a combination of two separate commands: echo
and git credential approve
.
-
echo
: Theecho
command is used to display text or variables on the terminal. In this case,echo
is used to print the specified text"${url=http:--example-com}"
. -
git credential approve
: This command is related to Git's credential helper system. When you perform Git operations that require authentication, Git can use a credential helper to securely store and retrieve your credentials. Thegit credential approve
command is used to approve or grant access to the credentials for a specific URL.
The pipe symbol |
is used to redirect the output of the echo
command as the input to the git credential approve
command. So, the output of the echo
command "${url=http:--example-com}"
is sent as input to git credential approve
.
Overall, this command sets the value of the URL to http://example.com
and then approves the credentials for that URL in Git's credential helper system.
