Problem: Git asks for credentials at every operation.
There are two solutions:
- Configure an access ssh key (bit difficult and depends on the remote server)
- Configure git credential cache (simple)
Modify your local git config with the following command:
git config credential.helper 'cache --timeout=21600'This will tell git to remember your credentials for 6 hours.
Problem: Store executable file in a git repo.
With the following script git will remember, that the file has to be handled as executable, after a pull the file will have the required permissions.
# Stage the script.sh file
git add script.sh
# Flag it as executable
git update-index --chmod=+x script.sh
# Commit the change
git commit -m "Make script.sh executable."
# Push the commit
git push
