To unstore saved credentials you only may delete keyring file. This will
also remove all other information saved in the keyring file. As far as I
know, CVS plugin also uses to store credentials.

This location is no longer used when JavaSVN is used within Eclipse (e.g.
with Subclipse).
Default location for keyring file is
ECLIPSE_HOME/configuration/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.keyring
Eclipse supports command line options that allows to specify different
location for keyring file as well as password to encrypt keyring file with.
You may find this options and some other information on keyring file in
built-in Eclipse help.
