DESCRIPTION

       This  command  configures  git  to  use  GitHub  CLI  as  a  credential  helper.  For more
       information    on    git    credential    helpers    please    reference:     https://git-
       scm.com/docs/gitcredentials.

       By  default,  GitHub CLI will be set as the credential helper for all authenticated hosts.
       If there is no authenticated hosts the command fails with an error.

       Alternatively, use the --hostname flag to specify a single host to be configured.  If  the
       host is not authenticated with, the command fails with an error.
