Wait, I use osxkeychain. It’s basically a requirement if you’re pushing to an authenticated server over HTTPS and don’t want to have to deal with storing keys yourself. I suspect it is used a lot for this.

I have yet to see a Git repo that didn't allow you to push via SSH (git://) rather than HTTPS, and that's preferable, anyway. I usually configure repos to use git:// in both directions, though git allows you to configure fetch and push separately if you want.

I avoid Keychain as much as I possibly can, after reading in some documentation somewhere that it stores all your passwords on the disk in cleartext the entire time you're logged in.

I have no objection to having the osxkeychain feature, but I don't recommend actually using it.

What do we do? :)

To fix the build you have two options:
1. Revert that patch for system before 10.7
2. Remove folder contrib/credential/osxkeychain

I suggest to follow (2) as simpler thay and the good news that osxkeychain
is something that isn't often used.
