https settings in authentication.conf cause failure

[thrope]

I would like to use bzr-svn with an Google code svn repository using authenticated https.

Things work as expected without authentication.conf, with the incovenience of having to type the password several times for each operation.

However, when I add the following settings to authentication.conf to automate the procedure it become impossible to connect and perform any opeartion.
 Having
[project_name]
scheme=https
host=project_name.googlecode.com

doesn't have any effect - but as soon as a user= or password= section is added to authenticate.conf, any operation fails (eg bzr update, a fresh checkout). I am prompted and enter the password but after the following message appears in the log:

bzr-svn @0.4.12 devel/bzr-svn

[thrope (x-launchpad-robince-ftml-net)]

Having upgraded to bazaar 1.7 and bzr-svn 0.4.13 the problem seems to have gone away.

With this set up it something requests access to the log in from the Mac system keychain. The authentication.conf file has no effect.

So it's possible there is still a bug with authentication.conf...
