I am running Subversion 1.6.17 as installed by MacPorts 1.9.2 on Mac OS X 
10.6.7. What do I have to do to get Subversion to recognize that the 
certificate we are using for Mac OS Forge *is* issued by a trusted authority? I 
want a solution that does not involve every MacPorts contributor having to see 
this message and press "p"; I want a solution that does not involve anyone 
seeing this message at all.

Do I have to somehow provide Subversion with a bundle of well-known trusted 
certificates? MacPorts includes the port curl-ca-bundle which installs a bundle 
of certs from Mozilla, and is used by the curl port to be able to access https 
sites. Can Subversion make use of that same bundle?
