Stanislav Kanev commented on JENKINS-8059:
------------------------------------------
I think I found the root of the problem.
The native credentials are overwritten only when you use svn externals.
I tested a ckeckout/update of a project without the svn externals and the
credentials are not overwritten.
Hope that helps to finally resolve this issue, as it is a real blocker and it
is not fixed for more than a year.

> Hudson does rewrite the authentication file under

> credentials stuff.
> I am using a custom build which does use the command line client (in addition
> to the normal svn usage of the hudson project) - so the credentials are
> important to be in there. My custom project is broken every time hudson does
> rewrite those authentication cache file from subversion.
> Is it possible to configure hudson not to do this rewrite or to insert those
> credentials when the rewrite does happen?
> The only workaround found is to set the immutable bit (removing write
> privileges is not enough) as root user to the file in question which hudson
> is not able to workaround (which is expected here and good).
