Client adapter would be a critical piece of info to know.

For JavaHL, this is not stored in the registry, it is in the Subversion
runtime configuration area. Which is in their home folder by default.
Presumably a user would be authorized to this.

I do not know where JavaSVN stores the info. It might use the same
location. It uses the Eclipse keyring for passwords, so it could use
that.

I wouldn't expect either adapter to have any problems in this area, but I
definitely would not expect JavaHL to have a problem.

This should still be true since it uses the same area to store the info.

I do not think this is an area of Subclipse that is is susceptible to
breakage.
