At my office, our SVN credentials are tied to our network credentials. Every month, we have to change our network passwords and it royally screws up the SVN credentials for Subclipse Subversive in the FDT standalone IDE. Even if you check the “remember password” box it will continuously prompt for your SVN user/pass. I tried everything from resting the password through the terminal to deleting keyring files and stored keychain passwords. My co-worker had the following solution and it worked right away.

Step 1 – Open an “Other” Perspective

Step 2 – Choose “SVN Repository Exploring” Perspective

Step 3 – Right-Click SVN Repo and Choose “Location Properties”

Step 2 – Update Your Password
