That means the server isn't sending an authentication challenge. Which
means your repos/conf/svnserve.conf is misconfigured.

Either you configure the server to demand authentication, in which case
it has a username to store in revisions... or it never challenges the
client for authentication, in which case there's no username to store.
You have to choose.
