Are username and password necessary to retrieve the latest SVN commit?

Why didn't the Subversion (SVN) command line client need the username and password when running the following command:

svn log -q --limit 1 http://example/svn/project_name/trunk --xml

It depend on repository settings (i think is possibile authorize anonymous login) but if you have already used the svn client (also a graphical client) for accessing that repository and you have saved your credentials, svn command don't ask you again.

You can remove authentication from graphical client and try the svn command again.

Here an example for TortoiseSVN:
