Double authentication

[matthijscox-asml]

We use PkgAuthentication.install to setup our internal Pkg server and we've noticed that our authentication is always triggered twice nowadays, even if the first authentication is successful. It's not blocking anyone, but it's a little annoying.

This is all we see in the REPL, after the first successful browser authentication it simply starts a 2nd browser authentication:

Could it be related to the hardcoded retries=2 in the generate_auth_handler?

Which version of PkgAuthentication is this?

Which version of PkgAuthentication is this?

I've noticed this with v2.2.2 on Julia 1.11 and with v2.3.0 on Julia 1.12

This should be fixed with v2.3.1.

However, I wasn't able to reproduce this issue without the force=true flag -- is that something you're doing internally?
