git-credential-manager-1.4.0

Major changes

• On Mac OS X, the default ISecretStore implementation now uses the Keychain.
  • The first time, the secrets from insecureStore.xml will be imported into the Keychin and then the file will be renamed to insecureStore.xml.old. The file isn't deleted (yet) after the import to facilitate downgrading without re-authenticating. Once you are satified with the stability/usability of the new implementation, go ahead and delete the insecureStore.xml.old file.

Minor changes

• Improved the RPM-based installation for GNU/Linux.
• Added preliminary .DEB (Debian packages) generation.
• Updated minimum Mac OS X version to 10.9.5. Thanks go out to Kern Handa who tested on his Mac and submitted pull request #24.

Known issues

• Versions of Java before Oracle Java 7 Update 6 as well as default OpenJDK installations currently do not support OAuth 2.0 authentication & authorization with Visual Studio Team Services.
  • Workaround: install Oracle Java 7 Update 6 (or later) or build & install OpenJFX for OpenJDK 8.
