Providing SSH private key to "svn+ssh":

SVN_SSH="ssh -i /private/key/file" svn {command}

SSH issue while using "svn+ssh"

Here is the strange issue I've faced while trying to "ssh" to a currently
configured SVN server with "svn+ssh":

alf@melmac:~$ ssh alf@blabladomain ( success ( 2 2 ( ) ( edit-pipeline  
svndiff1 absent-entries commit-revprops depth log-revprops partial-replay ) )  
)

And thanks to the guy referenced on the below link providing me the solution:

alf@melmac:~$ ssh -o PreferredAuthentications=keyboard-  
interactive,password,publickey alf@blabladomain
