It sounds like you're running into httpd issue 56480:
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=56480
Note: This is a bug in Apache HTTPD, not Apache Subversion.

Downgrading to httpd 2.2.24 or 2.4.4 should work around it
until a fix is available. This is a bit tricky because such
a downgrade would also undo some security fixes.

If you compile your own HTTPD then applying the patch which
can be found in issue 56480 would be the best thing to do.

As explained in issue 56480 the problem has some history but
intially started with this change:

  *) mod_dav: Ensure URI is correctly uriencoded on return. PR 54611
