How do I change my SVN account in subclipse

Question

I am running eclipse Version: 3.5.2 Build id: M20100211-1343 with the subclipse plugin 1.6.4 I have saved my password, but now I need to change the account I connect with.

How do I do that?

My coworker has Version: Helios Release Build id: 20100617-1415 and subclipse 1.6.14 but no Application data folder.

Where might subclipse hide its config data if there is no Application Data folder?

Answer 1

I think you need to clean the Subversion credentials storage:

~/.subversion/auth on Linux and OSX
USER_HOME\\Application Data\\Subversion\\auth\\svn.simple directory on Windows

Answer 2

On Ubuntu the files in ~/.subversion/auth/svn.ssl.server were just trusted SSL certs. You want to locate a file called .keyring (mine was eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.keyring) and delete that- next time you try to interact with your SVN repo you will be prompted for your credentials.
