Hi All

I tried to add a user through the 'Configure Global Security' tab. Once I add the user and click on add , the managePassword is getting changed ( which I actually dont touch) . Im using the Chrome as the browser. Does this version of Jenkins that will do some autofill of passwords?

Browser vendors make it basically impossible for web applications to prevent password autofill due to past abuses by e.g. bank websites. They just autofill all the things, all the time.

Maybe the change in Jenkins 2.x that prohibits autocomplete of any kind helps here, but haven't tried it.
