So, in revision 51091 the path /infrastructure/site is added. It'
can't be committed in your repository, because the /infrastructure
path itself wasn't created.

Looks like read access to the asf repository's /infrastructure path is
restricted, whereas the '/infrastructure/site' path is open to
everyone.

AFAIK svnsync doesn't support this configuration, I suppose that all
people mirroring the asf repository without read access to the
/infrastructure directory will have the same problem.

There's no easy workaround I can think of. An ugly hack is to roll
back your local mirror to an empty revision before r51091(a revision
with a commit in a for you unreadable path), create the
/infrastructure path, and let svnsync continue from there.

While looking for a way to handle this behavior in svnsync, I found
that this issue is already logged:
