True. But, if someone is prompted for a password the first time they
commit, and then never prompted again, it is pretty darned obvious
that the password is being cached *somewhere*. It doesn't take a
rocket scientist, as they say :-).

Once someone realizes that, the documentation about it is pretty easy
to find, so it's easy for them to tweak their configuration if they
want.
