The user account that I am entering credentials for in my config file has a password with a pound sign/hash (#) as the last character. When I try to save the config with this, I get the following error:
Error when processing params for 'Password#', # must either be followed by a param pattern or another #
I am using Go 2.1
Subversion password with # character

Hi Paul,
The password field supports the use of parameters which is why the character "#" is considered special. To use a "#" within your password, you'll need to escape it with another "#". For example, if your password is "abcd#123" you'll need to enter it as "abcd##1234".
This issue has been fixed in Go 2.2 where you should no longer need to escape "#" within passwords.
