Password asking 2 times in svn+ssh URL
Hi all,
When we use a svn root with svn+ssh://host/blah, ssh asks password two
times.
This is just for curiosity and some annoyance..
Why does it ask two times? Is it off topic? :)
In cvs, it is done in one time.
And, of course, I use public key copying method for no asking that password.

Hmm, so all connections are equivalent in jobs
No connection dedicated working happens..
Ok, thank you.. :)

Because sometimes its more convenient to use multiple connections. (How
am I supposed to respond to that? :-) )
For example, when running 'svn diff URL1 URL2', one connection is used
to receive a description of which files need to be compared, and a 2nd
connection is used simultaneously to fetch the files for comparison.
It's nice to use network connections in parallel.

Yes, so.. for what object are there two connections..
for e.g. one for updating files, one for sending differential parts..?

The subversion client sometimes makes multiple TCP connections to the
repository. This is by design. Repository connections are "objects"
that are created as needed.
If you're using ssh, however, then the 'ssh' binary will prompt you for
your password every time you make a repository connection. The only way
to deal with this is use an external caching program like 'ssh-agent' on
unix or putty's 'pageant' on windows.
