Passing credentials in GNU Make
I don't make it a habit to pass credentials in scripts, but i'm in the process of automating some setup of my routers and using GNU make to have a simple make command to fix everything for me. However, I need to upload configuration files to the devices the scripts are setting up that prompts passwords. I am aware that you shouldn't pass passwords in cleartext or as environment variables generally. And thus my two questions.
Are commands executed from GNU Makefiles recorded to the command history? Should I pass a file instead, or something else that I am missing?
