How to mirror a p2 repository which requires authentication

Question

I know how to mirror a p2 repository (http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox_p2_Repository_Mirroring), however, my repository requires authentication. How do I provide the credentials to the mirror application?

Looks like that's very recent issue: How to specify credentials to p2-repositories requiring authentication?

Looks like there are no workaround :(
