TortoiseSVN doesn't prompt for authentication

Read Original

The article details a troubleshooting experience where TortoiseSVN stopped prompting for authentication during commit operations, causing authorization failures. The root cause was using the svn:// protocol, which allowed anonymous read-only access but failed on write attempts. Switching to the https:// protocol resolved the issue by correctly triggering the authentication prompt.
