Somebody else will have to implement it. Having a --password option in the command line could work, but it's painfully insecure if there's any way for another regular user to view the process table. Not something I'd like to encourage... Since SVN already caches passwords in a mostly secure location on disk (at least on *nix), shouldn't git svn be able to use the password cache SVN uses? -- Eric Wong -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
