Neither TortoiseSVN nor Subversion can store that authentication data.
You will need third party tools for that. There are some tools around
which can cache the auth data as long as those tools are running, but
not beyond windows login sessions - once you log off or shutdown your
computer, that auth cache is gone too.

That's one of the reasons I recommend using the Apache based Subversion
server over the svnserve one - with Apache, you don't need any other
tools to work comfortably with a Subversion client. And once you've set
the server up, all Subversion clients can work the same way. With
svnserve, you have to configure each one of your Subversion clients
individually to work with the server (if you use svn+ssh://).
