title: How can I use an Encrypted Password to a Maven Repository in Gradle
body: <p>I'm currently trying to transisiton a maven build to a Gradle build.  The show stopper hurdle I've hit is that our internal artifacts are deployed to an internal repository that requires authentication to read.  </p>
  
  <p>And you know what authentication means... usernames and passwords.  The problem is I don't want to require developers to store their password as plaintext on their hard drives.  Maven supports <a href="http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-encryption.html" rel="noreferrer">password encryption</a> but I'm not seeing how to make Gradle do it. </p>
  
  <p>Is there some magic access to the Ivy CredentialStore that will support encrypted passwords?  or will I have to wait for a new version?</p>
