This looks like the problem where ra_serf starts out with an HTTP/1.1 request: specifically, a chunked request. This is typically caused by a non-1.1 proxy in front of the server, such as nginx. Ideally, github would switch to a newer/better proxy such as haproxy. But the core problem is on our side -- issue 3979 (http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3979). >... Cheers, -g
