In case of plaintext password cache the password is also there. Some password stores might store the encrypted password here as well (for example on Windows the password is encrypted using Windows apis). > > UPDATE: > ------- > Now I have tried to check out a package from our SVN server into a freshly > built > Raspberry Pi4B running 32 bit PiOS (bookworm). > > Before I did this I had compared the config between an older installation > using > a several years old operating system and this new one and I saw that the > old had > this setting enabled: > > [auth] > password-stores = gnome-keyring > > So I added this to the svn installation config on the new RPi4B > > Then on the SSH login I tried to check out the package I wanted and this > happened: > > It asked for the password for "bosse" > > But I had not told it what user to use on svn so it seems like it forces > one to > use the local system username rather than the subversion server username! No, it doesn’t force the same username. It DEFAULTs to the current username for convenience, if you happen to have the same in both. If you have another username in Subversion, just press enter and it will ask for the username as well.

I think you should bring this up with the PiOS project. It seems crazy that a ssh session is able to open a GUI application on the local console that you can only access via VNC. > > Here it asked me the following: > ------------------------------- > Choose password for new keyring > An application wants to create a new keyring called "Default". > Choose the password you want to usefor it. > Password: ***** > Confirm: ***** > [Cancel] [Continue] > ------------------------------- > > So I entered the password twice and hit Continue. > > Now in the SSH window the checkout proceeded as it should have in the first > place... > > Finally: > -------- > After this was done I now created a new SSH session and inside that I went > to a > different target directory and issued the same svn command for a checkout > and > this time I was not asked for a password and the GUI screen did not pop up > a > dialog. > > So it seems like svn can be used on the command line provided one first > does > this: > > - Install subversion via apt > - Run a bare svn command to create ~/.subversion/config > - Edit the config file and enable this: > [auth] > password-stores = gnome-keyring I would NOT configure gnome-keyring as a password store, since it creates all the gui problems you have.

Sure that it will work, but only as long as the keyring is unlocked.
