I've searched all over the place but could not find any explanation as to why Google Code requires you to use their generated password instead of your gmail password or any other user-defined password. I did find one post to this group earlier that asked if they could set their own password, and they received the reply: "No", which tells me nothing. He also stated "it's hard to remember the password" to which he received the reply "Then use svn's built in password caching" (and all I could think is "because that's totally secure</sarcasm>") Many other SVN repository hosting solutions allow you to set your own password. In fact, as far as I'm aware, it seems the global norm that password randomization is only for if you wish to lose your account without deleting in or having it compromised...
So all I ask is: Why? Why does our code password have to be generated? Why can't we just set it? -IsmAvatar --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hosting at Google Code" group.
