Benjamin Bentmann commented on MRELEASE-340:
--------------------------------------------
Not sure since when but recent versions of the plugin support to read the
credentials from the {{settings.xml}}, using the host name part of the SCM URL
as the id to locate a {{<server>}} entry. AFAICT, this approach doesn't leak
the passwords into the {{release.properties}}.
> Don't store the scm password in plaintext in release.properties
