**[Rick Herrick](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=rherrick)** commented OK, then it'd be nice to have a mention on the page where I found that text that links to this page, so [from here](http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-deploy-plugin/usage.html) to [here](http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-encryption.html). The first page makes it pretty definite that there's no way to do this, which is of course belied by the capability described in the second. And second, I still think this is a valid feature request, since I can't just specify my user credentials on the command line, which is quick and ephemeral and requires no procedure to make work. Something like: ``` mvn deploy:deploy-file -Dcredentials=foo:bar blah blah blah ``` This is especially useful in scenarios where a developer may be deploying from an environment where s/he has write permissions on a development tree, but only read permissions on the settings.xml. This usually won't include the personal settings.xml, but again that's a procedure: the ability to just specify credentials on the fly would be much more convenient than a multi-step process. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
