[elbe-devel] [PATCH v2 0/1] elbe: documentation of password handling

[Holger Dengler]

This series contains additions to the documentation, how to deal with
passwords (plain-text or hashed) in XMLs. If you want to change the wording
or the location of the additions, please feel free to change.

I personally would also have a strong (paranoid?) recommendation, how to
handle passwords in XMLs, but it is not included in the patch. But let me
give you some key points here:
- use only hashed passwords in XML
- manage the plain-text passwords for Elbe target systems externally
- use login action (with the plain-text password for root) only in a variant
  for testing
- never deliver testing variant builds to the field

Changes since v1:
- typos
- picked R-b

The series is also available on github:
