Subject: Re: Dull problem when trying to automate post-commit review with svn

Hello, Christian.

Debug is already there. :) Notice the *-d* which is the same as *--debug*.
Indeed I had missed quoting the password but it works without quoting it
when I execute it as my user. Thus this seems not to be the thing stopping
the script.

As I previously stated when I try to execute the *same command* but *as* *
www-data* for example, I get a prompt for a password for *www-data*!
*www-data *does not need to enter a password as that user is merely
executing the script - all other user/password info is stated in the
arguments passed.

Any suggestions?

Borislav.
