In the "servers" file, you can set the property "ssl-authority-files" to a file containing trusted CA certificates [1]. There is also "ssl-trust-default-ca": "Set this variable to yes if you want Subversion to automatically trust the set of default CAs that ship with OpenSSL."

You might have to experiment a bit before it works. I got this working
at my company, but I remember I had to configure Apache to send the
entire certificate chain (not only the server's certificate itself).
See the SSLCertificateChainFile directive of Apache.

But just to be clear: this /etc/subversion/servers file needs to be
installed on the client machine (where the svn client is running). If
those clients are on Unix machines, you can configure it in
/etc/subversion/servers (or in the ~/.subversion directory of your
users). If your users are Windows users, you need to get this
configuration on each and every one of their client pc's.
