I have my GitHub tokens in my .netrc, could this plugin read those as an alternative to having them in the settings file?

No, it cannot read .netrc at this moment.

wget, curl, ...

Also, the Python requests package supports it as well

EDIT: There's also an unofficial git-credential helper in the contrib directory of the git repo here
