I do not believe this is currently possible.  The entire authentication
process happens in OpenSSL completely outside of SVN.  There is no API to
pass a selection into OpenSSL before the process starts.

Of course when you are using the command line, there is no long lived
session as there is for a web browser.  So each command is a completely new
session to your server and the prompts will all be repeated.

It would be best to ask on the TortoiseSVN list so that they could tell you
definitively.  I can say it might be worthwhile downloading their latest
nightly build for SVN 1.7.  I know that the TSVN devs have made some custom
patches to OpenSSL to resolve this issue of the constant prompting.  So it
is probably worth giving a try.  AFAIK, he does not plan to backport that
into his version for SVN 1.6.
