Branko Čibej commented on SVN-4789:
-----------------------------------

Log message for {{github-request-id.patch}}:
{noformat}
Hack ra_serf to work with GitHub's bridge again.

* subversion/libsvn_ra_serf/options.c
  (options_context_t): New member 'received_github_request_id_header'.
  (capabilities_headers_iterator_callback): Check if we received that header.
  (options_response_handler): Allow DAV responses without DAV headers, if
   the 'X-GitHub-Request-Id' header is present.

* subversion/tests/cmdline/dav_tests.py
  (connect_to_github_server):
   Remove the @XFail annotation. Add an @Issue annotation.
   Change the test URL to point at HTTPd's GitHub mirror.

> TL;DR: GitHub's Subversion bridge does not return the required "{{DAV:}}" header in responses, so the Subversion client from 1.11.0 onwards refuses to connect to it.
