How to checkout using subversion and https












30















I have just installed subversion and the repository is hosted on Assembla.



Normally when I use windows I just use tortoisesvn and it prompts me for a username and password.



When I try to checkout from the terminal I don't know how to manually specify the username and password and it just freezes when I try to checkout without them (can't ctrl-C the hell outa there).



Here is what I am trying:



svn co https://subversion.assembla.com/svn/comcal/trunk


When I was trying to copy the command line just then I got this:




svn: Server sent unexpected return
value (502 Proxy Error) in response to
OPTIONS request for
'https://subversion.assembla.com/svn/comcal/trunk'

          You can specify a username using



          svn co --username your_name https://svn.server.com/repository/trunk


          and the password should be prompted afterwards.



          However, it's not necessary to specify the username, svn is going to prompt you anyway.



          This and more information can be found either in the documentation of svn or using a simple command:



          svn help checkout

          • With svn 1.10.2 on Windows 10, when svn prompts for the username it does not allow you to enter it. With every key press the computer beeps at you.
