I've successfully done a checkout over IPv6 using the SilkSVN
distribution of the command line subversion client, using the identical
format URL (e.g. with the square brackets, which are necessary when
using IPv6 addresses directly in a URL).
The error using the dns alias is roughly "the name is valid but no
records of the requested type were found" - I take this to mean that the
dns alias returned some records but Tortoise was expecting A records,
not AAAA.
I'll try building from trunk next I suppose.
Thanks,
Timothy
