Thanks @JornVernee for your contribution! :tada: 

The patch looks good, have you tried it with a credential with a `path`? I'm thinking that if the user has a `path` set for a credential then we should probably pass that `path` back to `git credential approve`  in `GitCredentials::approve`. Won't we otherwise set the credential for the entire host, or am I missing something? Looking at the [man page](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-credential) it seems like we should pass the `path` back to `git credential approve`
