Add usual login with password #433

Open rugk opened 5 years ago

rugk commented 5 years ago

Reason: “Paswordless” login with getting a confirmation mail each time I want to login is much more cumbersome. (i.e. bad usability) (Also it is not as secure, but that may not be top priority here.)

If you don’t understand it, note that I do – as anyone obviously should – use a password manager and thus clicking on a link in a mail is totally awkward to just login.

I’ve explained that whole topic already here: https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/allow-usual-mail-password-login/18192 2

Or wait, actually it is configured… :thinking: (only with my mail though, no username, see https://vim.cx/?ede76a907e4e4683#xhQN8H/HfALnn3/+eU/lxkBoQkbfaKtQWTXz4xfRabo= )

So maybe that's the issue?

So feature request: Let me somehow manually set username/mail to use for git/hg/whatever commits in the Janitor UI, so it can properly auto-configure it and it does not end in a state/error like this.

From my understanding, you can follow #413 for the implementation of an alternative to the current process.

You should be able to change this for all your containers in the Configurations tab of https://janitor.technology/settings/ and for additional control, you are always able to change it in each of your containers with git config.

Okay, https://github.com/JanitorTechnology/janitor/pull/413 is already nicer than mail-login, but I would still prefer a usual mail+password login.
