I say better clear text than rot-13. Unless it has passwords properly encrypted with a master password, and associated session management (which would be nice, but as far as I know no-one has implemented this for svn yet), clear text seems to be the best choice.Firefox and friends use Base64 for storing passwords.
Yes, that's worse. Absolutely no more secure, but harder to decode a password in your head if you (or a relative in my case) happen to forget one.
