"GitHub's Two-Factor Auth and Gnome-Keyring" - newer version of git credential supports updated libsecret?

[ariccio]

When following your instructions, I got a whole bunch of build warnings (full output below). Looking into it, apparently gnome-keyring is depreciated! Maybe you should update the instructions?

I actually haven't used this in a long time, but if you figure out how to update it, let me know and I'll update my post!

[ariccio]

I think I've gotten the more modern version (with libsecret) working, using the process mentioned here, linked to from here... although I've only used it for one respository so far, and I have a terrible feeling that I'll forget how I did it six months from now.

Grrr. I really miss GitHub for Windows, it did all of this for me >:(
