Ah, yes, I see, it was changed in November. In that case: ``` var cloneOptions = new CloneOptions(); cloneOptions.FetchOptions.CredentialsProvider = ... ``` should work, no? (It looks like @mburtka was...

That was two and a half years ago. A lot has changed since then. It's going to be tricky to isolate the problem. One question to start - what's the...
