29366	startproject --template option doesn't support http authentication, neither through .netrc file	Nahuel	nobody	"I'm trying to install project from private repository behind an http basic authentication.

Trying the url authentication schema like http://username:password@domain.com/myfile.zip provide an URL parsing error: password is considered as http port.

Trying to use NETRC environment variable or the ~/.netrc file doesn't provide any effect.

This come from the use of urllib.request.urlretrieve there, that doesn't support any kind of authentication:
https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/core/management/templates.py#L262

I think anywhere an URL can be used, django should support http authentication.
