OS X Subversion Hack: Make sure user has svn credentials cached in cleartest

    * NOTE: this is a hack, but otherwise the --non-interactive flag does not work, which is required for cruise. We should find out the root cause, see this bug: http://www.pivotaltracker.com/story/show/233525
    * NOTE: You will need the projectuser's SVN password for this step.
    * make sure you are logged in as the projectuser

      rm -rf ~/.subversion

    * Run the Utilities/Keychain Access app - delete all login entries.

      svn log --limit=3 https://svn.pivotallabs.com/subversion/sandbox/trunk

          o Accept cert permanently, type projectuser's svn password 
    * Edit ~/.subversion/auth/svn.simple/<some hex filename>, make it look like this:

      K 8
      passtype
      V 6
      simple
      K 8
      password
      V < length of projectuser svn password >
      < projectuser svn password >
      K 15
      svn:realmstring
      V 44
      <https://svn.pivotallabs.com:443> Subversion
      K 8
      username
      V 8
      < projectuser svn username >
      END

    * Make a backup of this file, because it may get reverted
    * Run the Utilities/Keychain Access app - it should contain a single login entry for the project user and each subversion https repo.
    * Verify everything is working correctly (interactive and noninteractive for sandbox and client project):

      export PROJECT_USER=happyclient
      export PROJECT_USER_PW=change4menow   # put the password in
      svn log --username=$PROJECT_USER --password=$PROJECT_USER_PW --limit=3 https://svn.pivotallabs.com/subversion/sandbox/trunk
      svn log --username=$PROJECT_USER --password=$PROJECT_USER_PW --limit=3 https://svn.pivotallabs.com/subversion/sandbox/trunk
      svn log --username=$PROJECT_USER --password=$PROJECT_USER_PW --limit=3 --non-interactive https://svn.pivotallabs.com/subversion/sandbox/trunk
      svn log --username=$PROJECT_USER --password=$PROJECT_USER_PW --limit=3 --non-interactive https://svn.pivotallabs.com/subversion/sandbox/trunk

    * Do the steps above again to ensure they still work
