By the way, you can see the breakage from your patch pretty easily by
testing the terminal input. Disable any credential helper config you
have, and then run:

  GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1 \
  git ls-remote https://github.com/peff/ask-for-auth 2>&1 |
  perl -lne '/Authorization: Basic (.*)/ and print $1' |
  openssl base64 -d

enter "myuser" and "mypass" respectively on the terminal. The result is
that we send "mypass:mypass" to the server. And then double-free the
result, which cases glibc to barf.

I wondered why we did not see this breakage in test suite. My assumption
was that it was simply because our test user has the same username and
password. So I fixed that, but to my surprise we still did not detect
the problem. The issue is that your patch does the right thing when
GIT_ASKPASS is in use, and breaks only when the user types into the
terminal. But the test suite, of course, always uses askpass because it
cannot rely on accessing a terminal (we'd have to do some magic with
lib-terminal, I think).

So it doesn't detect the problem in your patch, but I wonder if it is
worth applying the patch below anyway, as it makes the test suite
slightly more robust.

Subject: use distinct username/password for http auth tests

The httpd server we set up to test git's http client code
knows about a single account, in which both the username and
password are "user@host" (the unusual use of the "@" here is
to verify that we handle the character correctly when URL
escaped).

This means that we may miss a certain class of errors in
which the username and password are mixed up internally by
git. We can make our tests more robust by having distinct
values for the username and password.

In addition to tweaking the server passwd file and the
client URL, we must teach the "askpass" harness to accept
multiple values. As a bonus, this makes the setup of some
tests more obvious; when we are expecting git to ask
only about the password, we can seed the username askpass
response with a bogus value.
