How to use KWallet for secure password storage for Subversion on FreeBSD?
This tutorial is out-dated as subversion-kwallet is no longer available in ports.
Setup
- Install
kwalletmanager,kwalletandsubversion-kwallet. - Run
kwalletmanager5. - Add
kwalletto thepassword-storesvariable in the~/.subversion/configfile. - Do some work with Subversion. You'll be guided through the process of creating a new wallet and storing a password there.
Usage
It looks like you've got to start kwalletmanager5 manually before you use SVN. Otherwise, SVN tries to create a new wallet every time.
