--- Comment #5 from Thomas Schweikle <tps@vr-web.de> ---
Looks like you are using subversion 1.6.11 (r934486) for your server. The error
is known. An upgrade would solve it.
https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/subversion-users/201307.mbox/%3C503643E3CDB1B140A24214C3484DCE8C01689F14@hwde-muc-ma-1.de.hyperwave.com%3E
The server seems to respond with an incomplete XML document structure. Closing
tags may be missing or not nested correctly:
Missing:
<tag>
something
EOD
Incorrect nesting:
<tag_1>
<tag_2>
</tag_1>
</tag_2>
Clients choke on these. In our case: the server isn't closing an open tag. Some
clients respond with the error I gave. Some tell "Connection timed out" waiting
on the closing tag.
To successfully checkout sources we would have to find a client not choking on
such malformed XML-Documents. I'am sure there are some around, but not at most
halfway up to date distros. And it wouldn't make sense to install an old quite
outdated subversion client if the recommended server version ist 1.8.13, the
older supported version is 1.7.20 and your servers version ist at outdated
unsupported 1.6.11 if the subverrsion website is correct:
https://subversion.apache.org/download/
I think you might be best of upgrading your server to the latest available,
recommended version.
