Does\nrepeating that command (after successfully running it once) still prompt\nyou? (it shouldn't prompt you again if you have auth caching on).\n\nIf \"svn ls\" is prompting you every time, then SVN auth caching is\nsomehow disabled/broken on you system. You can try poking around inside\nyour ~/.subversion/ directory and see if there's permissions problems\nor such...\n\n-- \nEric Wong\n"}]}
