My basic point presented:
But a much cleaner solution is to confront IT with the fact that they need to
do something with the server as it is basically broken.

Subject: [EXT] Re: Bug: Svn client will no longer connect to old SVN server
Another stupid hackaround could be to setup a local old proxy/man in the middle
https server that still accepts old tls connection, but also provides newer
protocols and switch your working copy to this server instead.

Hello Subversion folks,
When I upgraded to the latest version of my Linux OS (Ubuntu 20.04) and
installed Subversion 1.13.0 client, svn could no longer connect to our
company's old subversion server via https.
$ svn --version
svn, version 1.13.0 (r1867053)

$ svn update
Updating '.':
svn: E170013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL
'https://something.something.com/repos/something/trunk'
svn: E120171: Error running context: An error occurred during SSL communication
Doing a checkout results in the same error.
The server (I am told) is running RHEL 6.10 with OpenSSL 1.0.1.
I understand that the old server is limited to using the old insecure TLSv1...
I'm not IT though with no power to upgrade the server... and I just want to use
our internal system. How do I configure the new svn to connect to the old
server?
Michael
