Is that true? As a user of the credential system, git-remote-mediawiki
would want to "write" to git-credential, then "read" the response. As a
helper, git-credential-netrc would want to "read" the query then
"write" the response. The order is different, but the operations should
be the same in both cases.
The big difference is that mediawiki would want an additional function
to open a pipe to "git credential" and operate on that, whereas the
helper will be reading/writing stdio.
