Oh I see - yeah don't want to erase the credentials.
Was trying to figure why 403 was happening instead of a prompt (as I was not
aware of netrc file being used).
Thanks for the detailed explanation and suggestions Brian!

Is it worth it to include the netrc tests in git that I wrote as part of
this
Yes, I think if you have patches to test our netrc handling, those would
be very welcome.  I was complaining a couple months ago about how we had
no tests for netrc after I accidentally broke the code that makes it
work, so I would very much appreciate any tests we could add to make
that less likely in the future.
