You forgot about the part where you run `git push` later and realize it didn't save your passkey, so you have to make another one. This time you Google how to save it and copy the top answer on StackOverflow, which uses the git credentials store to save it in plain text in your ~/.gitconfig file. Now is the passkey more secure?

That seems more like a problem with StackOverflow than anything else.
Yeah I would just edit that answer to add a big warning at the top.
