 Workaround to issue with CMD.exe inside emacs not prompting for password when "git push" command is issued.

 1. download and run git-credential-winstore.exe - https://gitcredentialstore.codeplex.com
 2. add this to the .gitconfig in C:\Users\<youruser> - http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/478/magit-push-hangs-on-windows
 [credential]
        helper = "winstore"

 Now when inside emacs, do M-x, shell.
 Try pushing through https to github, you'll get a graphical login that allows you to input user/pass.

 This works seamlessly in Windows
