Description (last modified by )
Add autocomplete=username/email/current-password/new-password to contrib.auth builtin forms.
Pull request: https://github.com/django/django/pull/9921
The most useful one is autocomplete=new-password, which prevents browsers prefill with current password, Chrome will also suggest a random strong password for users who turned on account sync.
