Christopher Collins resolved MYNEWT-805.
----------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Better support for private repos
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: MYNEWT-805
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYNEWT-805
> Project: Mynewt
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Security Level: Public(Viewable by anyone)
> Components: Newt
> Reporter: Todd Mitton
> Assignee: Todd Mitton
> Priority: Minor
>
> A password or personal access token must be specified in project.yml for
> `newt install` to access a private repo. This makes it hard to use private
> repos in automated environments because it would require checking in the
> clear text password/token.
> We should add support for getting the password/token from an env variables.
> CI systems like jenkins, travis, etc. securely store secrets and make them
> available to builds through env variables.
> Even better then env variables is to use ssh instead of https. Private repos
> can be accessed via ssh, and newt can simply use the local ssh agent when
> accessing the private repo.
