Eh? ssh keys don't work with svn?

Nope, svn works over https instead. SVN does support an ssh-tunneled mode, but the
people on [EMAIL PROTECTED] prefer https access over it. It will only ask for your
password once (caching it in your ~/.svn/ dir a bit like cvs pserver used to do)

Hmm, the password is stored in clear text :( that sucks.

Yeah, it sucks++ and it's a major issue I have with https+svn. But it's only going to get worste
once we move over to ssl client certificate authentication ... The only thing needed is the same
thing as ssh-agent, but for ssl keys.

Why is it worse?

In the meantime, you can also tell svn _never_ to store passwords and type it every time. That's
what I do.

No, thank you.
