Bug Description

My password has changed in the subversion branch my bzr branch is bound to. When I run bzr update I receive a 401 authentication error.

When I first created the bound branch, bzr prompted me for my username/password to access the subversion repository. This was cached but now I need to reset the cache. In other tools I would expect to be prompted to reenter my credentials in this scenario. Bazaar appears to not be doing this.

I am new to Bazaar, if I should be doing something differently, please let me know.

Bazaar does not cache your credentials, but the Subversion libraries might and Bazaar can use those cached credentials if they are present.

You should be able to update the cached password by using one of the svn command-line tools.
