    How to use Mac KeyChain to store GitHub repos credentials?

You know the pain, you cloned a repo over HTTPS, and now Git asks you for your password each time you want to push or pull.
Chances are you already have the git credential-osxkeychain command installed.
If not, just install Git with brew: brew install git.
Once installed, just tell Git to use the KeyChain to store your credentials:
git config --global credential.helper osxkeychain
