# Include the port in the git-credential host field

`8bccb56`→[main](/content/gh/entireio/git-sync/commits/main/index.html)· Soph·1mo ago·2 files·+20 added/-1 removed

credentialInput emitted host=<hostname>, dropping any non-default port.
gitcredentials(7) defines host as "host\[:port\]", so on a non-default-port remote the fill query never matched the stored entry and approve/reject wrote to the default-port entry instead. Emit ep.Host (which keeps the port); the empty-host guard still uses Hostname().
