Using SVN version: svn, version 1.14.1 (r1886195) compiled May 21 2022, 10:52:35 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.
I tried pulling the commit log from https://github.com/haskell/random/branches/master but the process snags on https://github.com/haskell/random/commit/a44b801ab0033970660396a42462c4f7b4df56bb which corresponds to revision 897. The error is reproducible from the command line with svn log --xml -r897 https://github.com/haskell/random/branches/master The output is svn: E175009: The XML response contains invalid XML svn: E130003: Malformed XML: not well-formed (invalid token) at line 8 I was expecting control characters to be stripped, fuzzified or otherwise handled. The offending line in the commit, when printed with 'git log' displays as: 'Merged Martin SjA?gren's patch for multiline descriptionsb' which looks like reasonable output by comparison. I'm saw that handling unicode and control characters was a topic of discussion years ago but this case looks like a bug to me. It doesn't seem reasonable for the process to crash when pulling a remote commit log of a repo I don't own/control.
