[TSVN] Re: Is it possible to pass Author name in URL

I think it is both possible and useful to put an author's name in a
URL, when the repository is accessed via svn+ssh. I do this all the
time. It's useful for when the subversion client guesses the wrong
user name. For example, if I'm logged in to a Windows machine as
"erich", but my repository is on a machine to which I normally log in
as "offby1", if I simply ask Tortoise to check out
svn+ssh://machine/repos, it'll fail because I cannot log in as erich.
But if instead I check out svn+ssh://offby1@machine/repos, it works
fine.
