When visiting a file in a Subversion working copy, if the repository
url is http and the server requires authentication for check-ins, when
you type "C-x v v" to check in (the file has local changes), Emacs
hangs (presumably svn thinks it has prompted for credentials and is
awaiting a response). To recover, it is necessary to kill the
"svn.exe" process and run "svn cleanup" on the (now locked) working
copy.

`vc-svn-checkin' should pass "--non-interactive" to the svn
executable. (Checking-in still won't work, but at least you get an
error promptly.)  As a workaround, set the variable
`vc-svn-checkin-switches' to "--non-interactive".

All svn invocations are probably potentially affected, depending on
how the server is set up. Indeed, I don't see why vc-mode shouldn't
pass "--non-interactive" to every svn invocation.

Cf bugs 4280 and 7152.

Perhaps we should just add --non-interactive to vc-svn-global-switches,
or make vc-svn-command unconditionally add it, and be done with this
once and for all (hopefully...).

Although like http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2008-05/0762.shtml,
I wonder why svn cannot default to non-interactive when stdin is not a
tty.

That's a user var, so better leave it alone.

That sounds right.

We can add a comment in our code that --non-interactive is a workaround
and that svn should do it automatically since we're using a pipe.

Done.

Gotta cater to the common use case of

  find . -name '*.pdf' | xargs svn update 

though. (http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2009-04/0094.shtml)

Maybe newer svn DTRT though.

Yes, I think the real test is not "is stdin a tty" but "are we connected
to a tty", which would work right in both cases (an Emacs subprocess
connected via a pipe does not have an associated tty whereas the above
svn command would if typed in bash).

The real test is "is the channel where we ask the question a tty".
