No, that is not how it works. If the may_save argument to the prompt
function is FALSE, it means that it is impossible to save. Even if you
set may_save in the creds struct to TRUE, it will not be saved. If the
application wants to remember a default setting for the user, it must do
so in an application specific way (probably utilizing the prompt baton).
That has nothing to do with the svn libs.
