Stanislav Kanev commented on JENKINS-8059: ------------------------------------------ I think I found the root of the problem. The native credentials are overwritten only when you use svn externals. I tested a ckeckout/update of a project without the svn externals and the credentials are not overwritten. Hope that helps to finally resolve this issue, as it is a real blocker and it is not fixed for more than a year. > Subversion Plugin does break native svn command line authentication, > credentials missing after rewriting auth cache file > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: JENKINS-8059 > URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-8059 > Project: Jenkins > Issue Type: Bug > Components: subversion > Environment: Linux, Ubuntu Hardy and Jaunty, Solaris > Reporter: tkrah > Assignee: Kohsuke Kawaguchi > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: subversion.hpi > > > Hudson does rewrite the authentication file under > ${user.home}/.subversion/auth/svn.simple/$file and does not insert > credentials stuff. > I am using a custom build which does use the command line client (in addition > to the normal svn usage of the hudson project) - so the credentials are > important to be in there.
