Description

Trying to checkout a perforce project I get the "password is required for the perforce scm plugin."

Editing the project info and adding the username and password doesn't help. Looking at the code, seems to me that the information in the project is ignored when checking out for all SCM implementations.

now I'm stuck because after I got continuum to pass the password the p4 command is failing anyway

p4 -d /Users/csanchez/dev/continuum/continuum-webapp/data/working-directory/1 -u username -P password login username

Perforce password (P4PASSWD) invalid or unset.

If I set P4PASSWD environment variable the command fails anyway

this issue has two parts

  • a dupe of CONTINUUM-1909 scm user and passwd not being passed
  • a dupe of SCM-415 maven perforce scm implementation requires password always

I'm tempted to move to fix version 1.3.x because we need a new scm version here.
