Unless I don't assign the kind and digest some value for the object I
declare here , calling svn_checksum_clear() on it will give me a
segmentation fault , could you please elaborate more as to why should I
have to call svn_checksum_clear() before assigning the digest any value??

Yes, that sure looks like a better approach now.
