Re: [jira] [Created] (SOLR-11279) It is necessary to specify how to generate a password when used Basic Authentication!

The files that make up the new reference guide are in AsciiDoc format
and are part of the standard checkout of the source, see
https://wiki.apache.org/solr/HowToContribute for getting the source
and https://builds.apache.org/view/L/view/Lucene/job/Solr-reference-guide-master/javadoc/how-to-contribute.html#link-to-other-pages-sections-of-the-guide
for editing HowTo

Anyone can edit the reference guide docs and create a patch, please
feel free to amend the documentation as you'd like and submit a patch.

Best,
Erick
