OK, so the statement I made about either storing it insecurely or having to type it every time is true. I think the first thing I'll do once we've switched over is add code to svn so that it will read http passwords from the Mac OS Keychain :).

No - it's cached by the client in a per-project file that is read- only by the user - very similiar to what .cvspass is/does

I'm a fan of the latter, since then I don't have to store the

Just a nit ... you don't have to type it everytime even when you use
svn over http(s). It's cached by default.


Did you mean it's cached by the server?
