How do you accept an SSL certificate through the SVN command line?

Is there an command line option to auto accept a SSL certificate permanently using the SVN commandline in a way that avoids the prompt?

Solution 1:

It depends somewhat on your version of SVN. Recent (1.6+) ones have the usual --non-interactive (which you want to use to avoid prompts) and also a --trust-server-cert that may do what you want.

Solution 2:

Using --trust-server-cert will not permanently accept the SSL certificate. You can permanently accept the SSL certificate via the command line using Input Redirection and not using --non-interactive.

Here's an example for Unix/Linux:

svn list [TARGET] << EOF
p
EOF

NOTE: The "p" above is for (p)ermanently.
