git-credential-keepassxc

git-credential-keepassxc is a Git credential helper that allows Git to get/store logins from/to KeePassXC.

It communicates with KeePassXC using keepassxc-protocol which is originally designed for browser extensions.

How to install

  1. Install Rust compiler via rustup or your favourite package manager
  2. Run cargo install git-credential-keepassxc (or cargo install --git https://github.com/Frederick888/git-credential-keepassxc.git for the latest development version)

Note: Make sure $CARGO_INSTALL_ROOT is in your search path.

Configuration

Similar as the browser extensions, git-credential-keepassxc needs to be associated with KeePassXC first.

Run:

$ git-credential-keepassxc configure
$ git config --global credential.helper keepassxc

A group (by default Git) will be created to store new logins.
