explanation.introduction=While subversion allows you to specify the ''--password'' option explicitly in the command line, this is generally not desirable when you are using Hudson, because:
reason.1=People can read your password by using pargs.
reason.2=Password will be stored in a clear text in Hudson.
alternative.introduction=A preferable approach is to do the following steps:
step.1=Logon to the server that runs Hudson, by using the same user account Hudson uses.
step.2=Manually run svn co ...
step.3=Subversion asks you the password interactively. Type in the password.
step.4=Subversion stores it in its authentication cache, and for successive svn co ... it will use the password stored in the cache.
final.words=Note that this approach still doesn''t really make your password secure, it just makes it a bit harder to read.
