Re: TortoiseSVN constantly asks for a password

Actually also setting MaxKeepAliveRequests to 0 (unlimited) doesn't solve this.

To illustrate again, I did this:

Commit -> Tortoise asks for password (although it is saved) -> I hit "Ok" -> Authentication failed -> Cancel
-> Commit -> Tortoise asks for password (although it is saved) -> I hit "Ok" -> Authentication failed -> Cancel
-> Commit -> Tortoise asks for password (although it is saved) -> I hit "Ok" -> Authentication failed -> Cancel
-> Commit -> It works!

or

Update -> Tortoise asks for password (although it is saved) -> I just hit "Cancel" and it works anyway

Thanks,
Thomas
