Re: TortoiseSVN constantly asks for a password

Hi Jörn,

I can also enter the password and it works like you described (works this time, ignores saving the password).
What I described, is continuing _without_ entering the password again and after a few tries hitting ok with empty credentials/cancel/retry it works _without_ ever entering it again.

Greetings,
Thomas

This seems to happen when TortoiseSVN has already stored a password and the user changed the password afterwards. The only solution is to manually clear the authentication data (TortoiseSVN > Settings > Saved Data, Authentication data -> Clear).
