I use passwordless ssh, via Kerberos, so I can avoid key exchanges, but still XCode (version 2.1) has no idea on how to communicate to SSH/CVS or SSH/Subversion successfully (I always get ``authentication failed'').
Is XCode 2.2 better? Can it handle CVS/SVN? With or without passwords I don't care, what really care is the ssh tunneling. Would you suggest me to move to 2.2?
Moving to XCode 2.2 made no difference to me - I still get authentication failed, but command-line svn, svnX and SCPlugin all work fine.
I have had better luck with 2.2. I have gotten too used to using the command line client, so I am still using it for commits. I am also using SSHKeychain http://www.sshkeychain.org/ to handle unlocking my keys in my terminal sessions. I think XCode picks that up also. I am using a password for the key. I can get info from subversion and do comparisons and diffs, which didn't really work under 2.1
I tried SSHKeychain, but it made no difference for me - I still can't authenticate (the authentication dialog comes up with all fields empty - any ideas how I can get them filled in?). I have ssh set up so I don't need a password ro passphrase from the command line and every other svn client except XCode works fine. XCode works fine for local repositories, it's just svn+ssh which is causing the problem.
