This seems to be a problem with the SVN libs,
maybe it is the encrypted password storage ...
Please verify that assumption with the *Windows*
command line client.

Try also different command options / network
settings. Different protocols (HTTP, SVN, SVN+SSH)
might also show different behavior.

TSVN up to version 1.2.6 will run on Wine.
You may get the MSI files from SourceForge.

While it would be nice to know how to run TSVN
under UNIX, please understand that there will be
no official support from our side.
