New Revision: 1005788

Log:
On the 'gpg-agent-password-store' branch:

* subversion/libsvn_subr/config_file.c
   (svn_config_ensure): Add gpg-agent to config file.

Moving a irc question: 'Should we support the gpg keystore on Windows and OS/X?'

On Windows we support the Windows CryptoAPI and on OS/X we support the 
keychain, so we can already assume that we support encrypted passwords there.

My personal idea would be to not support it on Windows (because it implies to 
much commandline specific behavior), but do support it on OS/X. But I would 
like to see more input.

I dunno.  If we get the same ability from Keychain (which is
guaranteed to be available on OS X, iirc), then adding gpg-agent
support seems a bit redundant.  We then have to answer questions about
precedence, and possibly add more config, and it just seems messy.
Plus, we haven't really heard much demand for it, anyway.

Does Apple keychain work if you ssh into a Mac? If not, then I could see a use case for gpg keychain support.
