Re: authz repository syntax

From: jehan procaccia <jehan.procaccia_at_int-evry.fr>

I tried that, but no success .

[procacci@anaconda ~/checkout/procacci/trunk/scripts]
$svn --username procacci commit -m "maj test.sh3" test.sh
Sending test.sh
Transmitting file data .svn: Commit failed (details follow):
svn: Access denied

Anyway the ssh authorized_key file which do "command="svnserve -t
--tunnel-user=procacci"" is , I think , already setting the username
to procacci ... ?

Moreover, I suppose auth information are recorded locally on my client
side, I suppose somwhere in
[procacci@anaconda ~/.subversion/auth] ? How can I reset that so that I
am sure svn ask me again for auth .
I would have like to commit agin but this time forcing procacci user
instead of svn user wich contain the procacci public_key . I tried this
syntax but clearly it's not the right way to force a new way to connect :-(
 
[procacci@anaconda ~/checkout/procacci/trunk/scripts]
$svn commit -m "maj test.sh3" test.sh
svn+ssh://*procacci*@share.int-evry.fr/s2ia/procacci/trunk/scripts
svn: 'svn+ssh://procacci@share.int-evry.fr/s2ia/procacci/trunk/scripts'
is a URL, but URLs cannot be commit targets

Thanks for your help
