Changing SVN author/username name | ubuntu

Question

Whenever i commit the code in SVN repository, it shows that the code is commit by user "SVN" instead of my own username "some_name".

It looks that i need to change or update the username/author on my machine(client side). Can anybody tell me that how i can change this?

Here is the detail of SVN INFO

 svn info
Path: .
URL: svn+ssh://**************
Repository Root: svn+ssh:*******************
Repository UUID: ******************
Revision: 123456
Node Kind: directory
Schedule: normal
Last Changed Author: svn
Last Changed Rev: 121345
Last Changed Date: 2012-11-08 07:08:37 +0500 (Thu, 08 Nov 2012)

Thanks in advance.

Well, masking URL was wrong. Blindly I can recommend only verify, under which user started SVN (svnserver, if I'll write details) on server and under which user you *really login* — Lazy Badger, Nov 08 '12 at 22:32
@RodyOldenhuis: yes you are right, its exactly what i was looking for. — Nadeem Yasin, Nov 29 '12 at 08:00

Hi @LazyBadger: Thanks for your answer, sorry i was late in responding. The solution was the same which Rody provided in comment. I was exactly looking for that but perhaps couldnt convey my thougths well in question. – Nadeem Yasin Nov 29 '12 at 08:02
You may provide the the same link in answer below. Because on that link, im not convinced the way he has asked question. – Nadeem Yasin Nov 29 '12 at 08:05
