+Note that some error codes have been defined with a specific meaning in the
+context of callbacks:
+- `GIT_EUSER` provides a way to bubble up a non libgit2-related failure, which
+  allows it to be preserved all the way up to the initial function call (a `git_cred`
+  setup trying to access an unavailable LDAP server for instance).
+- `GIT_EPASSTHROUGH` provides a way to tell libgit2 that it should behave as if
+  no callback was provided. This is of special interest to bindings, which would
+  always provide a C function as a "trampoline", and decide at runtime what to do.
