Tamas Cservenak commented on MGPG-137:
--------------------------------------
Just to clear up: in case of CI runs, the environment variable is recommended
as source of sensitive "passphrase". While in case of dev workstation runs use
of gpg-agent is best practice and recommended.
In any case, no sensitive data like passphrase should (or is even needed) to be
stored in settings.xml or POM properties, never ever.
> Un-deprecate passphraseServerId

> Reporter: Lenny Primak
> Priority: Major

> IMHO this parameter has been deprecated in error.
> It is used to referenced the "server" field in settings.xml, where
> passphrases are stored in an encrypted fashion. This is actually safer than
> setting clear-text passwords in environment variables in practice.
