.gitcredentials vs .git-credentials

271 views Asked by At

I've chosen to use file-based git-credential-store. That is, my credentials are saved in ~/.git-credentials as per documentation. (I am using Windows 10)

However, I can see that the folder now has two identical files, .git-credentials vs .gitcredentials. Deleting one makes the other reappear. So I ask:

  1. is it a abnormal situation? Googling I only found 1 file as default
  2. why did this happen? (maybe something specific to my machine?)
  3. is there a way to keep only 1 file? (.git-credentials seems to be the "right" one)
