Not sure if this is an issue with msysgit or not, but it would be great if cmder could include a git credential cache. This is very useful if you want to use HTTPS repositories on Github. At the moment I always have to download cmder, then download the credential store and install it manually. Including this be default would be awesome!

Oh yea! That would be really convenient :-)
Maybe we can call out to @anurse. To help us!

Hey, I'm totally in favor :). I might see if I can do it as a PR but no promises :D. Feel free to just grab the binary and stuff it in your package!

A little late here.. I looked into implementing this, but I don't think it will be necessary.
With Git 1.7.10 or newer you can use the default Windows credential manager.
$ git config --global credential.helper wincred to enable.

Maybe make Cmder do this automatically? It's a lot simpler and doesn't require any additional files.

I see, I guess we can put it in the docs. Some people might not want this as default? I would rather it be a command to run rather than force it.
