When you select http or https in the Clone Other wizard you see a Username and Password field. Entering information into them has no effect. The UI is there but the information is not being passed onto the hg commands. This needs to be implemented. Release note.
Further investigation: HTTPS authorisation is only supported in Mercurial from the console. It is not supported in non interactive mode, so there is no way for us to pass a username and password from within the plug-in: /usr/lib/python2.4/vendor-packages/mercurial/httprepo.py : if not self.ui.interactive: raise util.Abort(_('http authorization required')) So we will disable https support from the Clone Other and Push/Pull commands. Users then have the choice of accessing a repository via http or ssh. With ssh you need to connect to the repository from the command line or other ssh utility to cache the server certificate on the client, once this has been done the plug-in can connect to the ssh repository without requiring any further user interaction.

Reopening this as it is possible to send username password as part of the URL for HTTP and Hg will accept it. http://[user[:password]@]host[:port]/[path] Currently entering this into the clone wizard you get: "Cannot access the repository" for this pattern. This is due to a validation failure in the RepositoryStepProgress.perform() code, which is returning -1 for the HttpURLConnection con.getResponseCode()
