I suspect that this might depend on Git version and configuration, and
things like gpg-agent. In my case, it displayed a window (in WM sense,
not in Emacs sense) asking for password, and only after clicking
"Cancel", it asked within Emacs. The prompt was:
Password for 'https://mbork@github.com':
and indeed the characters of the password were visible.
