git private repository access with username or password that contains the '@' character

[Itay Angel]

Hi,

I was wondering if there's a way to perform actions on a private repository using the git.exe (windows client) when my user/password contains the '@' character which is considered the host separator.

for instance I'm trying to  do the following :

git.exe ls-remote -h -t "https://username:pass@word@bitbucket.org/user/repo.git"

Thanks,

Itay.

You could

• omit the PW and enter it at the prompt
• try to escape the @: \@
• use SSH with a key instead of HTTPS

HTH...

Oh, and of course

• change that PW :)

Hi Itay,

I assume you want to use it for scripting and an additional line does not matter? You could try this:


printf -v HELPER "!f() { cat >/dev/null; echo 'username=%s'; echo 'password=%s'; }; f" "$YOUR_USER" "$YOUR_PASSWORD"
git -c credential.helper="$HELPER" ls-remote -h -t "https://bitbucket.org/user/repo.git"

Cheers,
Lars
