Editing Eclipse IDE/Fixing Issues with SVN and Subclipse (section)

=== Method 1 (using Eclipse Preferences) ===

Go to Eclipse and open your workspace. Click on Window > Preferences. Go to Team > SVN.

In SVN Interface > Client, change Client from JavaHL (JNI) to SVNKit (Pure Java).

Now try re-authenticating in your SVN repository. When you see "Enter Username and Password", do not have Eclipse remember the password! It will cause issues when checking out. The issue is with Eclipse's password manager communicating with the Subclipse plugin. (see the error above for some information).

You will have to enter your password on each rerun of Eclipse. It's annoying but it works reliably.

If checking out causes issues, try selecting a specific revision number in the Checkout dialog. (Click on Revision > Select... and click the most recent number (don't worry about the stars that appear next to them). Click OK then in the Checkout dialog, click "Finish".
