The AuthDigestDomain configuration is incorrect, it specifies a
protection domain which excludes the location you are trying to protect.
Remove the directive, or use, e.g.

   AuthDigestDomain /subversion

See the docs for more details:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_auth_digest.html#AuthDigestDomain

(versions of neon older than 0.28.0 did not validate the domain
parameter sent to the client, but new ones do)

Regards, Joe
