yes.
Note that svn.r-project.org for the R sources (and some
recommended packages' ones) *only* runs the apache secure http
interface  'https:/.........'  for security reasons.

It has the big advantage that there exist no (!) user logins on
that machine at all, and hence no compromised user ssh
information can be misused to break in.

*and* you can use source(...)!
