TSVN uses the same auth code as CM with the only difference that TSVN
can show a cert selection dialog.

Delete the registry keys
HKCU\TortoiseSVN\CAPIAuthz
and then try accessing your repo with TSVN. You will most likely get a
cert selection dialog showing up, and there you can then see that there
is more than one certificate.

That feature would require to save a lot of data somewhere. I'm leaning
against that, because that's also a problem in CM: ending the process
takes a long time because that data needs to be saved, and that can even
lead to the process being killed on windows shutdown - and then the data
is not saved properly...
