Subversion seems to have along list of upstream issues
can you check if the issue was already noted and solved upstream ?
If so I can deploy a new release.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Looks like 1.14.1 dated Feb 2021 is the latest official release, per their
website;
and that's what we have in Cygwin.
I also tried to check out and build it right from the repository, but there
were some
issues.... Once finally built I got an error message that the https:// scheme
wasn’t
supported. I guess I missed some configuration peculiarities for Cygwin (but
also,
I noticed that for some reason the source code treats Cygwin as Windows --
particularly
how the pathname is assumed to have the drive letters, and that is really
baffling --
so I am not exactly sure what was meant by that by the SVN developers).

you can rebuild with the same Cygwin setting and patches reusing the
content of the cygwin source packages. You can use Setup to download it.
It should appear under /usr/src.
You will need to install the package cygport to replicate the build
There is large manual to understand the script settings in
usr/share/doc/cygport/html/manual/toc_index.html
