Re: SVNSYNC issue with user

Hello,

When running the svnsync sync command from your cron, specify the destination repository username using one of the following options:

  --username ARG : specify a username ARG (deprecated;
                             see --source-username and --sync-username)
  --sync-username ARG : connect to sync repository with username ARG

The credentials originally given to svnsync init are cached in the authentication cache. However they are not "remembered" in the sense of always using the same user. You still need to specify the user if it deviates from the user executing the cron job.
