If you want to use Subversion 1.7, you'll have to build it yourself. I'd recommend using Homebrew or MacPorts if you're building for use on your own computer, or if all of your users have Xcode (or the mini command line version) installed.

Re: When connecting to an https server force use of TLS or SSLv3?

I would expect such settings to be controllable from ~/.subversion/servers, but none of the settings 1.7.x has there seem relevant. I'm not sure what other ways there might be to change the default.

About Apache+SVN "Digest mutual authentication failure: request-digest mismatch" / Server was not authenticated correctly
Hello list, I was experiencing problems with authentication (using HTTP Digest Auth+SSL) on our SVN server. It seems it has been reported a few years ago (see http://subversion.tigris.org/ds/viewMessage.do?dsForumId=1065&dsMessageId=911173), but I was not able to find a solution anywhere. The problem occured most often when merging, sometimes when checking out/in or updating. Trying to work around another problem (apache leaking memory, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/subversion/+bug/273859), I set 'SVNAllowBulkUpdates Off' which caused the authentication problem to occur a lot more frequently. Finally it seems both my problems are gone after switching from mpm-worker to mpm-prefork, with 'SVNAllowBulkUpdates Off'. This info might be useful for other users experiencing the same problem and give a hint that the authentication problem seems to be related to threading issues. Cheers, Kai PS. I'm not subscribed to the list, please CC me in responses or mail me in case I can help with more detailed info.
Environment variables in .subversion/config
Hi, I'd like to use a shared config file for multiple users, but I'm in a bit of a bind when it comes to ssh identity files. I'd like to have a line like [tunnels] ssh = $SVN_SSH ssh -q -i $HOME/.ssh/ssh-identity but svn cannot expand environment variables (or ~) from this file. Warning: Identity file $HOME/.ssh/ssh-identity not accessible: No such file or directory. svn: To better debug SSH connection problems, remove the -q option from 'ssh' in the [tunnels] section of your Subversion configuration file. svn: Network connection closed unexpectedly It would seem I can only have lines like [tunnels] ssh = $SVN_SSH ssh -q -i /home/user1/.ssh/ssh-identity which prevents a shared config. Has anyone run across this before? How did you get around this? Thanks --Mattius McLaughlin

Re: About Apache+SVN "Digest mutual authentication failure: request-digest mismatch" / Server was not authenticated correctly
You neglected to mention what the actual problem you ran into is and what versions of svn (and relevant dependencies) you use on your client and server. Thanks for the information!
