> Add functionality to allow HTTP authentication credentials to be specified in
> the settings file.
> When HTTP authentication is used to protect a repository, the mechanism for
> specifying the necessary credentials is through the use of the
> settings/configure ant task or command line. It is desirable in many
> instances to be able to decouple these credentials from the build file as
> they are often different for each user and a settings file seems an ideal
> place for such customizations, especially when dealing with resolvers.
