This adds basic support for user/password and SSH authentication to the push example. Authentication is implemented by using the
cred_acquire_cb
credential callback defined inexamples/common.c
.We think that supporting authentication is valuable because pushing to a target repository requires authentication in most practical applications (especially for testing). Also, we would like to use this extended version of the push example in a reproduction step of an issue we are going to submit (this makes reproducing the issue easier than having to build and debug a separate code example).
