| Start check for updates when open a working copy | When open a working copy start a check for updates in background |
| Start fill log cache on open | If set kdesvn start (re-)filling the logcache when open a repository or working copy if repository url is not assigned local (file:// ) |
| Check if items has svn:needs-lock set | Check on working copies if an item has this property set and if yes, displays a special overlayed icon. Setting this may let listings get real slow. |
| Get file details while remote listing | When checked, kdesvn get more detailed info about file items when making a listing to remote repositories. So you may see remote locks in overview. Be careful: This may let listings REAL slow! |
| Gain item info recursive | When activated, "info" on folders will gain information about all items below, may be real slow. |
| Display ignored files | Show items marked in subversion for ignore or not. |
| Store passwords for remote connections | Storing passwords is often a security problem. Subversion stores its passwords into a flat file, eg., passwords in cleartext! So be carefull setting this flag and see next entry, too. This item only says if saving passwords is the default, you may change it for specific realms inside login dialog. |
| Store passwords into KDE wallet | When saving passwords, the cleartext file from subversion is a security hole. kdesvn is able saving them into encrypted kde wallet instead there (starting with version 0.12.0) and use them. On other hand other subversion clients aren't able reading them so you must enter them if using tools like svn-cmdline or rapidsvn, too. As long as subversion don't encrypt password storage you should think twice about it. |
| Use internal password cache | When a password isn't stored persistent kdesvn may hold is until kdesvn ends so you may not need enter it again on each operation. This cache is never persistent, eg., it will not saved anywhere. |
| Log follows node changes | If checked log follows copy operations. |
| Logs always reads list of changed files | The logcommand may read list of changed files in commit. This is usefull and in most cases it cost not real more traffic. |
| Review items before commit | When doing a commit kdesvn may make a check what to do. Eg., if unversioned items are below which may added, list items changed and current operation will commit. This cost a depending on tree more or less time. |
| Maximum displayed logs when full log | Doing a "Full log" may cost a much, depending on start-revision. You may limit it to a default maximum value. If set to "0" it is unlimited. |
