Why Does Relocate require Repository Credentials?

When I started to do a relocate I was asked for the credentials for the repository server. This
concerned me because I had no intention to do anything on the repository server.

Am I correct that all Relocate is trying to do is verify that the new repository location points to
the very same repository as the old location?

If I am correct it seems to me that it would be helpful to add a note to the help file noting that
Relocate checks to be sure that the new and old location are in fact the very same repository so
needs to access the repository using the new location, requesting credentials if required for access.
