SSL/https in svn client
Hi people.
I'm looking and testing your great project couple of months, testing
milestones and building on Linux ...
I will like to use subversion for couple of developers who are behind
some restricted firewall but luckily they have http and https open, so
subversion is obvious answer.
However there is one problem, I can build on Linux neon library with
libssl and svn will recognize https URL schema. But, people from
outside that will use svn are using... windoze, and svn client from
subversion site (M7) doesn't have https URL scheme built in.
Where (or how) can I get vindoze client for them with https built in?
(Binary if possible).

Or you might be able to use stunnel for Windows and use the
non-SSL svn client over stunnel.

svn.collab.net does not have SSL enabled(*). Maybe somebody else does?
Cheers,
-g
(*) it isn't needed for our development, so I'd rather leave it out for
stability purposes. mod_ssl on Apache 2.0 isn't as robust as the version for
Apache 1.3.

I thought of that - didn't work last night, got some error about DAV and
the URL, but it's working tonight *shrug*.
So yeah, that seems to be a way to test SVN/SSL without anybody having
to fool with mod_ssl.

One option would be to get stunnel and run that as a transparant frontend for
the normal HTTP respository. At least that would enable you to try out the
HTTPS parts.

I took a stab at this, and it didn't seem too bad. OpenSSL has scripts
and batch files for building on Win32, including useing VisualC++ - the
only catch is that you have to have Perl to run some config scripts
(ActivePerl worked fine).
Getting neon and svn to use OpenSSL only seems to require changing a
handful of lines in various VisualStudio project files.
Whether it actually works or not, I'm not sure - is there a SVN
repository available somewhere for testing with an https: URL?

Building on windows? Huh... I never tried something like that on
non-unix system.
Anyway, thanks. I will put cygwin and openssl on some win machine and
... try. :-)

You'll have to build it yourself. What you have to do is build and
install OpenSSL on Windows, then rebuild neon with SSL support (it's
trivial, but be warned that the Win build scripts that come with neon
aren't up to date), then rebuild Subversion with the SSL-enabled neon.
