Long time NB user on linux.

Notice recently that in my linux keyring,  had duplicate entries created
for NB/GIT credentials, when I do authenticated GIT activities from
Netbeans 21.

Yes, I use the 'save password' feature on NB/GIT operations.

The entries seem identical, except:   one entry has no password, the other
one has a password.

I don't know what criteria NB uses to select the key-ring entry to use, but
it seems to 'like' to select the one w/o a password, inevitably causing an
auth failure.

Has anyone seen this?     Have a work around for this?       Yes, purging
the bogus/empty entry, is a bit of work around.   It is only when NB
creates the keyring entry, do the dupes appear.      Another thought/note:
I have 90day PWD rotation, which hit last week.   I purge my keyring and
start over after a PWD rotation.   Prior to the last PWD rotation, I was on
NB20 during a rotation;  NB20 didn't seem to have this issue.

AND/OR,  I'd be content if NB would delegate to .netrc when doing GIT/JGIT
operations, is that an option?

TIA!
