GIT-CREDENTIAL-CACHE--DAEMON(1)              Git Manual              GIT-CREDENTIAL-CACHE--DAEMON(1)

NAME
       git-credential-cache--daemon - Temporarily store user credentials in memory

SYNOPSIS
       git credential-cache--daemon [--debug] <socket-path>


DESCRIPTION
           Note

           You probably don’t want to invoke this command yourself; it is started automatically when
           you use git-credential-cache(1).

       This command listens on the Unix domain socket specified by <socket-path> for
       git-credential-cache clients. Clients may store and retrieve credentials. Each credential is
       held for a timeout specified by the client; once no credentials are held, the daemon exits.

       If the --debug option is specified, the daemon does not close its stderr stream, and may
       output extra diagnostics to it even after it has begun listening for clients.
