wget http://login:password@server/repo/repository/archive doesn't work
Created by: Giszmo
To me it is not apparent why wgetting an archive shouldn't work. Most research into the issue went into the @ in the login but replacing it with %40 or using
wget --http-user="[email protected]" --http-password=mypass ...didn't help despite other sites telling this should work. I only get some text/html with "Forgot your password?"
