vcs import fails when credentials are needed

Running vcs import with a config file that contains two or more repos that need either:

• http login credentials
• private key password

does not work as the prompts clobber each other.

Running 0.1.15 from PyPI

I added docs about the --workers option and its effect on stdin processing: #119.

So maybe one has to stop the execution of additional workers if subprocess.communicate in VcsClientBase

While executing all the commands sequentially that would also mostly prohibit the performance improvements achieved by multiple workers. So I don’t see it being a viable alternative to --workers 1. Unfortunately I don’t have a suggestion for you.

hotfix is to set number of workers to 1, e.g.

vcs import < yaml_file.repos --workers=1
