Hello, User name (actually any credentials being used when connecting to repository) is not stored in the working copy.
Subversion maintains so called credentials cache on disk, by default at ~/.subversion/auth directory on Linux and OS X and at %APP_DATA%/Subversion/auth on Windows. Credentials to be used are selected by repository URL or realm string in case latter is provided (it may has any value, but default is composed the way you do in your example). When there are no credentials found in cache, then Subversion prompts user for them and stores them after connection is acknowledged by server (and configuration allows credentials storage). With SVNKit it is also possible to implement custom ISVNAuthenticationManager and manage credentials in way one likes.
