             Summary: plugman publish (documentation) issue when your credentials are incorrect
                 Key: CB-5472
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-5472
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Plugman
    Affects Versions: Master
            Reporter: Shazron Abdullah
            Priority: Minor


This is more of a documentation issue. Note that you will have to assume I know nothing about npm nor that the plugin registry is based on it and its commands.

If your credentials have been reset, and you have saved credentials that are incorrect, you will not be able to publish, and you will get a "login error" when you try to "plugman publish" and "plugman adduser".

When I did "plugman publish" I had the feeling I had the wrong credentials, and used the plugman help to see that maybe "plugman adduser" could be used to "reset" my credentials.

Using "plugman adduser" resulted in the same "login error" (I used the same credentials, it never asked for my password again).

The correct way was to erase ~/.plugman/config and run "plugman adduser" again.

Expected:
A way (documentation, or a command) to reset the locally saved password for the current user etc

Actual:
No way to change your password for the current user that is stored locally (without knowing plugman internals and deleting a file)
