             Summary: warning about maven3 passwords is too aggressive
                 Key: MNG-8424
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-8424
             Project: Maven
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: James Nord


when using maven3 encrypted passwords with Maven 4 at the start of **any** 
build you are met with many warnings (one for each encrypted password).

The warning is overly aggressive and implies things are not working (because it 
is a "problem").

As for a while users will need to swap between maven 3 and maven 4 the warning 
should be reduced to an INFO, otherwise users may end up breaking their maven3 
setup.

The warnings also seem to be duplicates.

"Pre-Maven 4 legacy encrypted password detected  - configure password 
encryption with the help of mvnenc to be compatible with Maven 4"
implies the current password is not compatable with Maven4.

However it is not the case, as maven can successfully decrypt the password 
(otherwise you get a different issue)
h3. Steps to Reproduce

Setup maven3 with a settings file and several server entries with valid 
encrypted passwords

run a build with maven4
h3. Expected Results

and info level message suggesting you migrate to maven4 encryption style if you 
no longer need compatability with maven3.

NB: some future (not initial) maven 4 version can change to this to a warning 
saying it is deprecated and to be removed
h3. Actual Results

see warnings above
