[Couchdb Wiki] Trivial Update of "Replication" by JensAlfke

Dear Wiki user,

You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Couchdb Wiki" for change notification.

The "Replication" page has been changed by JensAlfke:

Comment:
Fixed the note about the auth password being visible to others.

  {"source":"https://myusername:mypassword@example.net:5984/db", "target":"local-db"}
  }}}
  
- Be careful with this, since the password will be visible to anyone who has read access to the server `_activity` feed or (if this is a persistent replication) the `_replicator` database.
+ The password will not be visible to other users, even if they inspect the document in the `_replicator` database, but it's still stored in plaintext in the database file.
