--username and --password not working

[Lindsay Herron]

Hi,

I have tried to use the --username fakeuser and --password fakepassword --no-auth-cache when using the svn commands in cmd. This is not working for me. 

I have tried  following:

• deleting the auth folder:
  • rmdir /s /q "%APPDATA%\Subversion\auth"
• observed the following in the %APPDATA%\Subversion\config file
  
  • # store-passwords = no
    
  • # store-auth-creds = no

Our SVN repos are set up with a https client, but other than that I'm not sure about the configuration. If I need to add any details please let me know.

General Version info:

TortoiseSVN 1.14.1, Build 29085 - 64 Bit , 2021/02/09 16:17:02

When the server supports the Negotiate (SPNEGO) security package used for IWA / AD Single Sign-On, the SVN client will always prefer this authentication mode without falling back to password-based Basic authentication (unless you force the client to use Basic authentication). In this case, the SVN client doesn't prompt the end user for credentials and authenticates automatically using the credentials of the AD/Windows account that is currently signed into Windows on the client computer. The --username and --password options are ignored too.

If you want to sign in as a different user account, sign in under this account into Windows. Or try saving alternative credentials into the Windows Credential Manager.
