<h2>Getting rid of the password prompts</h2>
<p>Each cvs operation has to be authenticated with ssh. This is normally done
by you entering your password. This gets boring fast.
Instead, you can register your public ssh key with your SourceForge account. This way, your connection is authenticated automatically.
<p><a href="http://sourceforge.net/account/login.php">Log in</a>
to your SourceForge account and go to your
<a href="https://sourceforge.net/account/">account options</a>.
On the bottom of the page, there is a link to
<a href="https://sourceforge.net/account/editsshkeys.php">edit your ssh keys</a>.
Copy the contents of your local <tt>.ssh/identity.pub</tt> or
<tt>.ssh/id_rsa.pub</tt> there.
<p>Like many things on SourceForge, the key change doesn't take effect immediately. You'll have to wait a few hours until some magic batch job kicks in and puts your keys where they should be. Then you can use cvs without entering your password.
<p>If you work from several different computers/accounts, you must add the key for each account you are using.
