Xcode 4 SVN hanging at "Checking out" if client certificate required

Question

I am trying to get Xcode 4 working with my svn repository. I type in the svn address, which it says is reachable, but when I try to check out, it comes up with "The server 'svn.testbedapp.com' requires a client certificate." (it doesn't provide the option to supply the certificate) and then it shows "Checking out 'ProjectName'" indefinitely with s pinning wheel.

Any ideas how I supply the certificate or get it checking anything out?

Answer 1

It's a known issue.

Open terminal, type

svn ls <your repository address>

confirm certificates, check login/pass. After that repo will work fine in xcode.

Answer 2

You can put your certificate file name to SVN configuration file

 ~/.subversion/servers

In section [global] just add a line (use a full path - not relative)

ssl-client-cert-file = /path/to/your/certificate.p12

Optionally you can add also

ssl-client-cert-password = yourpassphrase 
store-passwords = yes
store-ssl-client-cert-pp = yes**
