    - #### getCredentials

          PasswordCredentials getCredentials()

      Returns the username and password credentials used to authenticate to this repository.

      If no credentials have been assigned to this repository, an empty set of username and password credentials is assigned to this repository and returned.

      If you are using a different type of credentials than `PasswordCredentials`, please use `getCredentials(Class)` to obtain the credentials.

      Returns:
        the credentials
      Throws:
        `IllegalStateException` - if the credential type was previously set with `credentials(Class, Action)` where the type was not `PasswordCredentials`

    - #### getCredentials

          @Incubating
          <T extends Credentials> T getCredentials(Class<T> credentialsType)

      Returns the credentials of the specified type used to authenticate with this repository.

      If no credentials have been assigned to this repository, an empty set of credentials of the specified type is assigned to this repository and returned.

      Parameters:
        `credentialsType` - type of the credential
      Returns:
        The credentials
      Throws:
        `IllegalArgumentException` - when the credentials assigned to this repository are not assignable to the specified type

    - #### credentials

          void credentials(Action<? super PasswordCredentials> action)

      Configures the username and password credentials for this repository using the supplied action.

      If no credentials have been assigned to this repository, an empty set of username and password credentials is assigned to this repository and passed to the action.

           repositories {
               maven {
                   url "${url}"
                   credentials {
                       username = 'joe'
                       password = 'secret'
                   }
               }
           }

      Throws:
        `IllegalStateException` - when the credentials assigned to this repository are not of type `PasswordCredentials`

    - #### credentials

          @Incubating
          <T extends Credentials> void credentials(Class<T> credentialsType,
                                                            Action<? super T> action)

      Configures the credentials for this repository using the supplied action.

      If no credentials have been assigned to this repository, an empty set of credentials of the specified type will be assigned to this repository and given to the configuration action. If credentials have already been specified for this repository, they will be passed to the given configuration action.

           repositories {
               maven {
                   url "${url}"
                   credentials(AwsCredentials) {
                       accessKey "myAccessKey"
                       secretKey "mySecret"
                   }
               }

      - `PasswordCredentials`
      - `AwsCredentials`
      Throws:

    - #### authentication

          @Incubating
          void authentication(Action<? super AuthenticationContainer> action)

      Configures the authentication schemes for this repository.

      This method executes the given action against the `AuthenticationContainer` for this project. The `AuthenticationContainer` is passed to the closure as the closure's delegate.

      If no authentication schemes have been assigned to this repository, a default set of authentication schemes are used based on the repository's transport scheme.

           repositories {
               maven {
                   url "${url}"
                   authentication {
                       basic(BasicAuthentication)
                   }
               }
           }

      Supported authentication scheme types extend `Authentication`.

      Parameters:
        `action` - the action to use to configure the authentication schemes.

    - #### getAuthentication

          @Incubating
          AuthenticationContainer getAuthentication()

      Returns the authentication schemes for this repository.
