Are you asking for an explanation of why violating the abstraction
layer between the application and the identity / credentials providers
is a bad idea?

I can't apply the patch and test it if I don't know what the contents of
the khapp.rc file are.

Also, if svn diff is crashing it is likely that the patch can't be
computed in order to perform the commit.  You should figure out what
is broken.  Asanka edits the RC files with Visual Studio as well and
doesn't have problems with svn crashing.

Be sure not to use the svn from CygWin.  It will only cause you
problems.  The most recent svn build is:

svn, version 1.4.5 (r25188)
