That's a good point. My team are currently still on MySQL 5.7 (in the process of migrating to 8.0), and sha256_password is the default in 5.7, and caching_sha2_password is not there. Although, I realise you may not want to support a MySQL version that is already EOL! In which case, I think the documentation should reflect this. |

mysql 5.7 is now deprecated, so no reason to add that anymore. |
