How to save subversion password using bzr-svn

Question

I use bzr-svn for chekout svn repositories using a bazaar. But bzr-svn asks for passwords every time I searched the Internet to find out about .conf authentication

I put the following authentication.conf section

[something] scheme=svn+http #tried http only or svn only host=uuuuuu.com path=/svn/project #tried without stating path user=wwwww password='mmmmmm' #tried without quotes 

In all cases, either I was asked to enter a password, or received the following error

 bzr: ERROR: Permission denied: ".": OPTIONS of 'http://xxxxxxxxx/': authorization failed: Could not authenticate to server: rejected Basic challenge (http://gamernetwork.unfuddle.com) 

I put the same snippet in bazaar.conf and subversion.conf, but got the same results / errors.

How can I use bzr-svn without entering a password every time?

Answer 1

I learned from the IRC channel #bzr that bzr-svn can use the cached authentication information of a regular subversion client.

You just need to check the project once using svn, saving the username and password. After that, bzr svn can use this password.
