Change User name in SVN??

[Kahuna]

Hi Folks - I'm struggling to discover how to change the log in user for the commit in SVN. That is having copied a directory and structure over from a colleague, his account is being used for the SVN sync cycle. I'd like to change it to my own. Looks at the moment like the only way to do that is by using a new workspace and additionally re-installing the SVN Software.

Any experience of this out there??

Hello

to commit with another user you must delete the file under "C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Dati applicazioni\Subversion\auth".
the file name is like this "7d60b1c683775d0350226d7ae953411e". You can open this with a text editor and edit the username.
it's also possible to delete the file ( copy first on another part ) and then, when you want to commit to svn server, you will must log in with the new username.

Exit servoy before.

I hope can help you
Bye
Roberto

I find it in Win7 under an hide folder.

the path is C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Subversion\auth\svn.simple

AppData is the hide folder.

Delete or edit the file inside.

I hope can help you.
