For automated git-authentication magic googlecode gives you a line to add to the .netrc file. This will seamlessly authenticate you with a username and password on googlecode for smooth git interaction.

What they fail to mention is how to implement this on Windows.

Here it is in three easy steps:

1. Open the command prompt.
2. Type set HOME=%HOMEPATH% and press enter to create a new environment variable telling git where to find your netrc file.
3. Type echo machine code.google.com login *email* password *password* > %HOME%\_netrc swapping out yourEmail and password with the ones supplied by google. On windows the file is not .netrc but _netrc.

You can now clone any googlecode repo you have access to without any authentication problems.

For ordinar, a "toun" is thocht o as lairger nor a veelage but smawer nor a "ceety", tho thare's exceptions tae this rule. The wirds "ceety" an "veelage" cam intae Scots frae Laitin via French. "Toun" an "burgh" is o hamelt Germanic oreegin, frae Auld Inglis burg, a fortifee'd settlement, an tūn, an enclosed bit grund.

In Auld Inglis an Auld Scots, "Toun" (or "town", "ton", etc.) oreeginally meant a fortifee'd municipality, whauras a burgh wisna fortifee'd. But that disteenction daedna last lang, an "Edina Burgh" or "Edinburgh"—nou cried a "ceety"—wis a fortifee'd "toun" frae its foondin.
