Finally, if you are consistent about remote repository nicknames,

you can configure the username in your `~/.hgrc` (`.hgrc` in your

home directory). For example, write there:

    [auth]

    acme.prefix = hg.acme.com/repositories

    acme.username = johnny

    acme.schemes = http https

and as long as you will be using alias `acme` for repositories like

`https://hg.acme.com/repositories/my_beautiful_app`, username

`johnnny` will be used, and the same password reused.

The advantage of this method is that it works also for `clone`.
