           Summary: webkit-patch should only prompt for password when
                    using git-svn and username is cached
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: dbates at webkit.org


Following the patches for bug #31500, we prompt for both a username and password whenever there is a missing SVN authorization file (i.e. first time commit) or the authorization file contains neither the password nor passtype keyword (*). When the authorization file exists then it will contain the username used in the first successful commit. So, when we detect that the authorization file exists and doesn't contain a password then we should only prompt for the password.

(*) This can occur when a person explicitly sets store-passwords = no and doesn't specify a value for password-stores in ~/.subversion/config. Then SVN will only cache usernames.
