I've setup a new SVN repository, running SVNServe, in the conf file, anon-access = none.
SVNServe faithfully does that correctly, but when I try to browse the repos using TortoiseSVN, it just says access is not allowed. Shouldn't it ask me for the user name and password instead?
How do I get TortoiseSVN to ask me for the login details?
Running SVN 1.5.6, TortoiseSVN 1.5.9
Enter your username and password. The checkbox will make TortoiseSVN store the credentials in Subversion's default directory: %APPDATA%\Subversion\auth in three subdirectories: svn. simple contains credentials for basic authentication (username/password).
The first thing that you need to do is to find the auth folder in the subversion directory that can be found tipically in the %appdata%\Subversion\auth e.g C:\Users\<your-username>\AppData\Roaming\Subversion\auth . Finally, select the auth folder and delete it.
That means the Subversion status is normal. As soon as you start editing a file, the status changes to modified and the icon overlay then changes to a red exclamation mark. That way you can easily see which files were changed since you last updated your working copy and need to be committed.
It probably has some authentication data saved, try:
right click->tortoise->settings->saved data->Authentication Data-Clear.
In some cases the "Clear"-Authentication data button remains disabled, then rename the folder in which the certificate is saved. Next time SVN will automatically ask for the password.
Sorry, didn't uncomment following line in the config:
password-db = passwd
