I don't think it's that unusual. What comes to mind immediately is it's not unusual for me to clone something from a private git repo, where a username+password would be needed for permissions. In which case it's possible to put in `git clone http://username:[email protected]` or another git command that interacts with remotes. (To be clear the "password" is typically a token and not human generated string, but still functions like a password).
