Adding section about other Git credential helpers, and mention OAuth.
This is based on my difficulties understanding how to get OAuth authentication from my local Git installation. The current content does not mention OAuth, or the need for organisation approval of OAuth apps not pre-approved by GitHub. Both those omissions caused obstacles for me.

Why:
Closes: 34710
What's being changed (if available, include any code snippets, screenshots, or gifs):
Adding section about other Git credential helpers, and mention OAuth. Add a few words putting GitHub CLI and GCM in relationship to the local Git installation.
