Description Glyph Lefkowitz CLA 2010-05-20 23:57:22 EDT 
Build Identifier: 

When I try to commit to an svn+ssh repository, I get a dialog prompting me for my SSH credentials.  I can specify a path to a private key instead of a password, but I don't necessarily have my SSH key on disk; it may be loaded into my ssh agent instead, from a filesystem that is no longer mounted or from something like a smartcard.

As it happens, my $USER matches my remote repository username as well.  Subversive should match the behavior of the command-line SVN client in these cases and just not prompt me for anything.

Reproducible: Always
