Plugin Update SVN Commit Authentication Filure

    I just tried updating my plugin and set the “Tested up to” tag in the readme.txt file but when trying to commit I’m asked for my www.ads-software.com credentials (which I recently changed).

    Neither the new password nor the old one work and I cannot complete the commit.

    Is there some place I can reset my plugins.svn.www.ads-software.com credentials?

    I changed my password and this is working now.

    It seems the issue had to do with special characters in the old password (WT… !?).

    The old password was generated using https://strongpasswordgenerator.com/ but it seems those are too secure to work with SVN.

    Although when changing the password you get the following hint:

    Hint: Use upper and lower case characters, numbers and symbols like !”?$%^&( in your password.

    I did have both “[” and “]” in the old password as well — not sure if those were causing the issue.

    I’m marking this as resolved, although the whole situation does not seem quite right.
