As of 1.8 SVN only uses the serf library for http communication, and
no longer the neon library (before 1.8, both were part of svn, but
neon was the default library).
Unfortunately there is no runtime-switch (yet) to enable debug output
with svn+serf. There is already an open enhancement request for this
[1].
You can enable debug logging with serf by rebuilding (see [2]).
With your combined input, this issue really starts to look like a
serf-related issue.
- Succeeds with file://
- Fails with http(s), but only with 1.8 clients, not with older clients.
To double check that it's serf-related, perhaps one of you could try
with 1.7+serf, and see if that fails as well. You can enable serf with
1.7 by specifying http-library=serf in the servers configuration file,
or by passing
--config-option servers:global:http-library=serf
on the command line.
Perhaps it's time to open an issue in the issue tracker for this.
