Admin password is asked multiple times #145

Open rdourado-synd opened 1 month ago

Using the --sudo option, this dialog pops up whenever a password is required to upgrade a cask or formulae:

That's fine. But since multiple casks require admin password to be upgraded, I'm also required to type my password multiple times.

I already tried setting a value for timestamp_timeout and using getpass.sh, but nothing worked.

Is it possible to ask for my password only once and remember it while running the update?

Thank you!
