This permits managing Launchpad access without needing to log in via the web browser, which can be helpful in automation or if ppa-dev-tools is used on a host that lacks the ability to run a web browser due to graphical or other limitations. See ppa credentials(1) for details on how to create this file, and alternative ways of managing it.
