Brent N Atkinson commented on CONTINUUM-2578:
---------------------------------------------

The patch no longer applied cleanly, but I was able to adapt it to the current codebase. However, after initial testing this does not appear to have a perceivable effect.

When I tested, the scm checkout successfully used the username and password from settings. However, this is unrelated and existing behavior and was a side effect of testing on a server that allowed anonymous access as well as authenticated. My understanding is that the technique is inadequate in its approach:

  * Correct scm configuration requires construction of the maven project metadata (a {{MavenProject}})
  * The {{MavenProject}} is built from a pom 
  * Continuum can not access the pom without a correct username and password

Looking carefull at the patch, the scm url is identified by using the maven project. This can not be correct.

> The attached patch is to configure the scm username/password from settings.xml when building a project from a pom file. It attempts to match the SCM server host name to the id of a server in the <servers> section.
