Help needed on setting the svn_auth_open using python bindings

[Prabhu Gnana Sundar]

Hi all,

Currently we have the "get-location-segments.py" script in our repo 
which works fine in normal cases. But when we run it against a repo 
which throws the authentication challenge, the script fails with error 
code "170001"

<snip>

("OPTIONS of 'https://some/path': authorization failed: Could not 
authenticate to server: rejected Basic challenge (https://some/path)", 
170001)

</snip>

I am writing a similar kind of script(like get-location-segment.py) 
which is failing for the same(authentication) reason.

I am not able to set the proper *auth provider* for "svn_auth_open" 
using the python bindings. Please help/suggest on how to proceed with this.



Thanks and regards
Prabhu
