Q: 

Windows 7, SVN client authentication

Recently I installed new windows 7 in my system and then SVN client. Now when I gave my repository path and checked out the code then it directly checked out the code, without asking the password. I am sure I have configured my repository to ask for the password since I other users of that repository still requires to give their password. Kindly let me know if someone has face the same problem.

Best Regards,

Aashutosh

A: 

Is the repository username/password the same as your windows 7 account by any chance?

Does that matter? When I was using XP, then it was asking even then.

Subversion doesn't store your credentials in the .svn directories. The credentials are stored in %APPDATA%\Subversion and are (by default) encrypted with your Windows password.
