On Archlinux, which has updated to 1.8.0 I see this in svn --version output * ra_serf : Module for accessing a repository via WebDAV protocol using serf. - handles 'http' scheme - handles 'https' scheme I believe that without serf, you wouldn't be able to "use" svn via http:// or https:// scheme, only svn:// and file:// (use = clone, commit, etc). On earlier version (1.7.x) ra_neon provided http and https scheme. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
