I'm running into an issue where I have to enter my pem certificate password every time I git-svn fetch or git-svn dcommit. Vanilla svn uses OS X KeyChain and remembers my password just fine. Is there a known solution for this? Other users have ran into same issue as described here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/605519/does-git-svn-store-svn-passwords
However, that solution of removing .subversion folder did not work for me.
I don't know if it is svn that has to remember password, or git that has to remember password. Git 1.7.9 learned "credentials API" that allows integration with platform native keychain mechanisms, and I think OS X Keychain is one of examples / supported platforms (but it might not made it into core git)... though I am not sure if it affects git-svn, or only HTTP(S) transport. -- Jakub Narebski
