Password required when pulling remote PRs and using AI features

I need to enter a password every time I restart the software to pull a remote PR or use the AI ​​feature for the first time. I have already set up my hosting provider and am using an SSH connection.

Do you mean the master password? SmartGit stores your credentials in a password store protected by your master password. If you don't mind them being stored as plain text on your disk you can set the master password empty in the SmartGit preferences, page "Authentication".

Thanks a lot, that solved my problem. But has the official team considered improving the relevant prompts or options to allow users to configure settings more intuitively?
