project subversion credentials

Added by Radek Antoniuk about 14 years ago

Hey,

is it possible to set the project subversion connection to authenticate via the logged in user's credentials?
Because now I assume, that I would have to create a universal user for every repository just for redmine to have access to the repo, which is quite stupid, because the repository access should rely on the user authentication.

You can't use the user's credentials, mainly because redmine doesn't store the user's password but a hash, which is useless to authenticate somewhere else. What you can do if using apache (or similar) is to allow blanket read access from the server redmine is hosted on.

Hi,

I've juste submitted a patch for this since I had the same problem. You can have a look here http://www.redmine.org/issues/5236 and please let me know your suggestions (I'm not a programmer)
