Currently it is not easily possible to share/use a link to a file in an svn repository.

If the direct link to the svn repo is sent tho share a file (e.g. https://myforge.com/svn/repos/myrepo/trunk/myfile.txt) the user is asked to enter a password even if he/she is logged in already to TeamForge. Sometimes it seems to even ask twice for the same password.

If a link from the web user interface is sent (e.g. https://myforge.com/ctf/code/projects.myproject/svn/scm.MyRepo/file/head/trunk/myfile.txt) the user has to do another click on the download button. This is unnecessary and unwanted.

We propose to have a one-click solution to share files in repos, file releases, etc. This will help to avoid that people are sending the files per email instead of referring to the content in TF. This, again, will help to improve collaboration in TeamForge.
