[Users] GetComponents stored username cannot be changed

Hi,

GetComponents, the tool used to download the Einstein Toolkit, prompts  
for the username for each repository when not doing an anonymous  
checkout.  If I type this username incorrectly, it seems to be  
impossible to correct it.  It keeps asking for the password without  
giving the option to change the username.  This happens even when  
rerunning GetComponents.

1. Is it possible to modify GetComponents to ask for both the username  
and the password when the login fails, instead of just the password as  
is currently done?

2. Where are the login credentials stored?  Is it all handled by SVN?   
i.e. (on Linux), the credentials are stored in $HOME/.subversion/ 
auth?  Deleting this directory didn't seem to help.
