I went with Joe Orton's explicit suggestion (and Karl's implicit
approval
thereof) that we break compatibility and change the default
behavior. See
http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2008-07/0161.shtml. That said, as
much of a
grump as I tend to be about such things, yes, I probably should have
coded
to my conviction and set the default as 'yes'.
I do not really have a strong opinion on it. I cannot imagine anyone
likes the current default.
Well, actually I think most users do. At least TSVN users:
if a cert file is requested, TSVN tells the user and asks for the file.
The user then selects the file and TSVN automatically adjusts the config
(if the checkbox is set) so that it never asks for that file again.
Basically, that saves the user from having to edit the config file manually.
Without asking for the file if the server requests one this would be
much more complicated: an admin would either have to configure this for
every user, or write a lengthy doc on how users have to configure it
themselves.
