    cred: tighten username rules The ssh-specific credentials allow the username to be missing. The idea being that the ssh transport will then use the username provided in the url, if it's available. There are two main issues with this. The credential callback already knows what username was provided by the url and needs to figure out whether it wants to ask the user for it or it can reuse it, so passing NULL as the username means the credential callback is suspicious. The username provided in the url is not in fact used by the transport. The only time it even considers it is for the user/pass credential, which asserts the existence of a username in its constructor. For the ssh-specific ones, it passes in the username stored in the credential, which is NULL. The libssh2 macro we use runs strlen() against this value (which is no different from what we would be doing ourselves), so we then crash. As the documentation doesn't suggest to leave out the username, assert the need for a username in the code, which removes this buggy behavior and removes implicit state. git_cred_has_username() becomes a blacklist of credential types that do not have a username. The only one at the moment is the 'default' one, which is meant to call up some Microsoft magic.
