It works "out of the box" if the authentication file used by the svn binary (in ~/.subversion/auth/) is available. But FSVS has currently no way to create such files; my current way (if needed) is to do a "svn ls http://....";, and then copy the matching file around as needed. It's not a good solution, I know; I'd happily accept a patch that corrects this. I think the subversion libraries have all needed functions -- although I have to admit I didn't look closely. So, any volunteers? Regards, Phil -- Versioning your /etc, /home or even your whole installation?
