Research direction

Start by locating the authentication prompt used by the tt install command, then inspect how password input is read. Done means password characters are visibly masked while entering or deleting the password, without exposing the actual password; add or update the relevant CLI test if one exists.

Description

feature teamE

When trying to install tarantool-ee using tt iit requests login + password.
I suggest that showing characters of password as "*" will be more user-friendly since now I cannot tell how much characters I type/delete.
Now:

sudo tt install tarantool-ee gc64-2.11.0-rc2-0-r549
Enter Username: f.terekhin@vk.team
Enter Password:

Suggestion:

sudo tt install tarantool-ee gc64-2.11.0-rc2-0-r549
Enter Username: f.terekhin@vk.team
Enter Password: *********************
