I am encountering a reproducible error with svn 1.9.2 (r1703836) on OS X
10.11.1 (15B42).
When updating or committing, the operation consistently fails with the
error:
svn: E125012: Invalid character in hex checksum
The output from `svn update` is:
$ svn up
Updating '.':
svn: E125012: Invalid character in hex checksum
The repository is on the host computer and file based. No network is
involved:
$ svn info

The subversion 1.9.2 (r1703836) build I am using comes from Homebrew,
http://brew.sh, and is the latest version available. Both pre-built
binaries and Homebrew built from source editions are affected:
$ svn --version

The following authentication credential caches are available:

* Mac OS X Keychain
I upgraded from subversion 1.8.13. This behaviour is new since updating to
1.9.2. The repository is many years old.
Reverting to 1.8.13 fixes the problem.
$ svn --version

Is this something I should reporting? Is there other information I can
provide to help debug?
Kind regards,
