R: Prevent storing of credentials

We also sometimes use shared machines and we have the same problem with credentials being saved by mistake.

The best solution I could figure out so far, is a script executed every time the computer is rebooted that deletes the saved credentials.
Of course, until the machine is rebooted, credentials saved by mistake remain there and can be used by the next user of the shared machine.

To remove the saved credentials, simply remove the following folder (assuming you are running as user "administrator"):
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Subversion\auth

It would be great if TSVN offered a configuration option to disable saving of user credentials.

Oggetto: Prevent storing of credentials

Hi!

We have a shared account on a build machine which is (unfortunately, yes I
know...) also sometimes used to commit changes. Up to now, those were always
committed by the one that created the equally shared (yes I know...) working
copy there, which I'd like to avoid.

I tried to delete all credentials, which then caused TSVN to ask me again on
the next occasion, so that worked.

I also tried to set both store-passwords and store-auth-creds to no in order
to make SVN not store this, but when I checked "store credentials" on the
next commit it still did so and I was back at step 0. Is there any way I can
reliably deactivate this feature?

Thank you!

Uli
