Description

(Pull request: https://github.com/apache/mynewt-newt/pull/101)

For private repos, the user's login and password are part of the repo URL. E.g.,

wes@~/dev/work/repos/private-repo$ git remote -v
origin    https://wes3:[password-redacted]@github.com/PrivateRepo/private-repo.git (fetch)
origin    https://wes3:[password-redacted]@github.com/PrivateRepo/private-repo.git (push)
