[FEATURE] Password prompt repeats endlessly
Problem
@gknorr has been testing, and found that if your git permissions are not configured to just use the defaults, you need to repeatedly enter your password and username. For a few times, this is OK, but given that the program downloads ~45 files, it gets irritating.
Fix
A recommendation can be sent to the user to check the following:
- A
${HOME}/.netrc
file exists - If not, explicitly ask the user if they want to create this file with proper permissions for gitlab
- If it does, and gitlab.awi.de is not included, ask to include it
- In any case, warn that if no other steps are taken to ease authentication, they will need to repeat their password often :-(
