[issue2759] svn subrepos checkout stalls on interactive prompting from subversion

[Philip Jenvey]

New submission from Philip Jenvey <pjenvey at underboss.org>:

svn can prompt the user in some situations, like when checking out a 
repository from an https server with an invalid certificate.

E.g.
Error validating server certificate: 
 - Unknown certificate issuer 
 - Certificate has expired 
... 
(R)eject, accept (t)emporarily or accept (p)ermanently? p 
Authentication realm: .. 
Password for 'root' 
Authentication realm: .. 
Username: repuser 
Password for 'repuser': 
Error validating server certificate: 
 - Unknown certificate issuer 
 - Certificate has expired 
(R)eject, accept (t)emporarily or accept (p)ermanently? p 

The subrepo support needs to either detect situations like this, or run 
subversion with --non-interactive (--trust-server-cert might also be 
required in this situation too, I'm not sure yet, more testing is required).
