</h3>
-<p>Calm down, take a deep breath.</p>
+<p>To avoid having to type a password for each server operation, Subversion
+can cache credentials.</p>
-<p>On Windows, Subversion uses standard
-Windows APIs to encrypt the data, so only the user can decrypt the
-cached password.
-<i>(Since svn 1.2.)</i></p>
-
-<p>On Mac OS X, Subversion uses the system Keychain
-facility to encrypt/store your svn password.
-<i>(Since svn 1.4.)</i></p>
-
-<p>On UNIX/Linux, Subversion supports GNOME Keyring and KWallet,
-both of which facilitate storing passwords on disk encrypted.
-These programs need to be available at compile-time and and at run-time.
-Otherwise, the client will fall back to caching your password in
-plaintext, but it will <em>never</em>
-cache a password in plaintext without asking first.
-<i>(Since svn 1.6.)</i></p>
-
-<p>On UNIX/Linux, the directory which contains the cached passwords (usually
-~/.subversion/auth/) has permissions of 700, meaning only you can read
-them.</p>
-
-<p>However, if you're really worried, you can permanently turn off
-password caching. Set 'store-auth-creds = no' in your run-time config file
-to disable storing any kind of credentials, or
-you can use the more narrowly-defined 'store-passwords = no' (so that
-server certs are still cached), or you
-can use the even more narrowly-defined 'store-plaintext-passwords = no'
-(so that encrypted stores like GNOME Keyring and KWallet will still be used).
-More information on password cacheing is in chapter 6 of the <a
-href="http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/index.html";>"Nightly
-Build" Subversion book</a>, under
-<a
href="http://svnbook.red-bean.com/nightly/en/svn.serverconfig.netmodel.html#svn.serverconfig.netmodel.credcache";>
-"Client Credentials Caching".</a></p>
+<p>Passwords may have been cached unencrypted by older versions of Subversion
+("grandfathered in") and Subversion always supports reading these. Whether and
+how Subversion caches new credentials depends on several factors, including the
+access method, operating system, compile-time options, and settings in the
+client's run-time config file.</p>
+
+<p>To show the credentials in your cache, use <tt>svn auth</tt>. Credentials
+are never removed automatically but may be removed manually using
+<tt>svn auth --remove</tt>.</p>
+
+<h4>Windows</h4>
+
+<p>On Windows, Subversion uses standard Windows APIs to encrypt the data, so
+only the user can decrypt the cached password. <i>(Since Subversion
+1.2.)</i></p>
+
+<h4>macOS (formerly Mac OS X)</h4>
+
+<p>On macOS, Subversion uses the system Keychain facility to encrypt/store
+the user's svn password. <i>(Since Subversion 1.4.)</i></p>
+
+<h4>UNIX/Linux</h4>
+
+<p>On UNIX/Linux, Subversion supports up to four credential caches:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>GNOME Keyring</li>
+<li>KWallet</li>
+<li>GPG-Agent</li>
+<li>Plaintext cache in ~/.subversion/auth/svn.simple/</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>To determine which credential caches your Subversion client supports, run
+the <tt>svn --version</tt> command and look for "The following authentication
+credential caches are available" toward the end of its output.</p>
+
+<p>GNOME Keyring and KWallet both facilitate storing passwords on disk
+encrypted. For Subversion to support these programs (since Subversion 1.6),
+they need to be available at compile-time and at run-time.</p>
+
+<p class="todo">TODO: Discuss GPG-Agent.</p>
+
+<p>Depending on a compile-time option (--enable-plaintext-password-storage)
+and runtime configurations (see below) Subversion <i>may</i> fallback to
storing
+passwords in the Plaintext cache.</p>
+
+<p>The default value of --enable-plaintext-password-storage was changed from
+True to False in Subversion 1.12, thus disabling the Plaintext cache unless
+explicitly enabled.</p>
+
+<p>The directory which contains cached Plaintext passwords (usually
+<tt>~/.subversion/auth/</tt>) has permissions of 700, meaning only the user
+(and root) can read them.</p>
+
+<h4>"Subversion was compiled with support for Plaintext password cache but I
+want to prevent writing passwords to the Plaintext cache."</h4>
+
+<p>The following options are available in your run-time config file
+(per user ~/.subversion/config and ~/.subversion/servers,
+systemwide /etc/subversion/config and /etc/subversion/servers):</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>To allow encrypted stores like GNOME Keyring and KWallet, but not the
+ Plaintext cache, set <tt>store-plaintext-passwords = no</tt>.</li>
+<li>To allow caching server certs but not passwords (encrypted or not), set
+ <tt>store-passwords = no</tt>.</li>
+<li>To disable storing any kind of credentials (encrypted or not) set
+ <tt>store-auth-creds = no</tt>.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h4>"I want to use the Plaintext cache but it wasn't enabled at compile
+time."</h4>
+
+<p>In response to various questions and requests, the Subversion developers
+have written a Python script that can store a plain-text password to the
+cache. If you understand the security implications, have ruled out other
+alternatives, and still want to cache your password in plain-text on disk, you
+may find the script here:</p>
+
+<p class="todo">TODO: Link to the script.</p>
