Well I guess if you get a username/password (i.e. commit access to
that project), the guys on that project would have known that too. So
why didn't you ask them?

In the discussion thread on the link I gave you there's also the
answer to this question.
You have to either check out a fresh copy with the https URL, or you
can 'relocate' your working copy. There's a separate context menu
entry in the TSVN submenu.
And read our docs about relocate before you do it!
