bzr-svn + https

[Lars Hoss]

Greetings everyone,

at work I started to work on a new project. Since SVN is set as the corp
versioning system I decided to give bzr-svn a go. So far it works fine
except that I always get a password prompt. Of course I digged around
for a bit but wasn't able to find a solution that works:

- Using svn+https:// without any changes to authentication.conf works,
but prompts at least two times for tasks such as bzr update

- Using svn+https:// with an user and password entry in authentication.conf
results in an crash:

bzr: ERROR: subvertpy.SubversionException: ('PROPFIND von \xc2\xbb/svn/repos/iphone/iphone2/trunk/xxx-iphone\xc2\xab: Autorisierung schlug fehl: Could not authenticate to server: rejected Basic challenge (https://xxx)', 170001)

(scheme = https)

- Using svn+https:// with only an user entry in authentication.conf will prompt
for the password but still will crash like above.

- Using https:// doesn't work for me because the company uses a
self-signed certificate and bzr refuses to accept it. The documentation
mentions "verify_certificates" but it also says it isn't implemented yet?


Any ideas or suggestions?

Cheers,
Lars
