SVN DCommit not working

[WvV]

Hi,

I'm trying to do a SVN DCommit on a project that was previously checkout from the same local SVN Repo, and get this error, after the prompt for my password:

git.exe svn dcommit

Is this a bug or a configuration issue?

I'm using: Git-1.7.11-preview20120710.exe and TortoiseGit-1.7.13.0-64bit.msi

[WvV]

I did some more testing with 1.7.14

If I add the following to .git/config:

[svn]
  username = wilfred

(Found some reference to this in issue: https://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/issues/detail?id=1319)
 
I still can't authenticate, but the exception is gone:

~~~

git.exe svn dcommit

git did not exit cleanly (exit code 1) (16614 ms @ 2012-10-15 15:15:06)
~~~

And I'm sure I'm using the right password!

Doing a commandline dcommit, does authenticate, and starts the dcommit, untill there is an exception:

~~~
$ git svn dcommit --username=wilfred
[...]

    385 [main] perl.exe" 5676 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to perl.exe.stackdump
~~~

After this the dcommit through the TortoiseGit interface also seems to work, but I noticed my password is in plain text in the file:
