Crap it's starting to do it again, this appears to be some sort Vista
issue. If I do the same on XP it works fine and it never reasks for the
login. I don't know what vista is doing but it appears that if you have
your repository root setup as just svn://host/ instead of
svn://host/repo/ then it doesn't like it and keeps losing authentication
information after a minute.

OK I have a fix. I just ended up uninstalling tortoise, deleting all
registry keys and deleting all folders related to tortoise and
subversion and reinstalling a fresh copy. Now it's not forgetting my
authentication information.

ok I thought it was svnserve. It appears that it's something with the
way things are setup. On our development server the svn path is
svn://host/repo/ where as our production server is svn://host/. The
development server never forgets the auth information but the prod
server does. it appears something is expecting something after the
hostname. They are both running the same version of subversion so it
appears the auth header is changing when doing it via svn://hostname/.

It appears to be a problem with svnserve itself. I decided to try the
collabnet version and the issue went away.

We are not using Apache at all. Our repository is using svnserve only.
