By any chance (and I haven't yet upgraded to TSVN 1.5.x) you
don't have changed your habits, like selecting several folders/files
for update/commit/log, have you? On one machine I don't cache
passwords either, so with just one folder or file selected TSVN
asks me once, but with x selected it asks x+1 times. Stefan Küng
has explained this to me some years ago, but I forgot why.

Freedom quote:
Schlimm ist vielmehr, dass die Politik gesellschaftliche Prozesse
nicht mehr offenhält und sie bloß begleitet, sondern dass sie sich anmaßt,
ihnen ihren Zielpunkt vorzugeben und das erwünschte Ergebnis auch durchzusetzen
- eben mit ihrer ganzen trivialen Rationalität und brachialen Effizienz.
