The commit message which added those tests (861444f 't: add test
harness for external credential helpers' 2011-12-10) provided nice
documentation in the commit message. Let's make it more visible
by putting it in the test description.
The documentation is updated to reflect the fact that
GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER must be set for
GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER_TIMEOUT to be used
and GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER_SETUP can be used.

t0300-credential-helpers.sh requires GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER to be
configured to do something sensible. If it is not set, prove will say:
./t0303-credential-external.sh .. skipped: (no reason given)
which isn't very nice.
Use skip_all="..." && test_done to bail out immediately and provide a
nicer message. In case GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER is set, but the
timeout tests are skipped, mention GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER_TIMEOUT.

We already have tests for the internal helpers, but it's
nice to give authors of external tools an easy way to
sanity-check their helpers.
If you have written the "git-credential-foo" helper, you can
do so with:
GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER=foo \
make t0303-credential-external.sh
This assumes that your helper is capable of both storing and
retrieving credentials (some helpers may be read-only, and
they will fail these tests).
If your helper supports time-based expiration with a
configurable timeout, you can test that feature like this:
GIT_TEST_CREDENTIAL_HELPER_TIMEOUT="foo --timeout=1" \
make t0303-credential-external.sh
