[Python-Dev] HTTPS read-only SVN access is denied?

[techtonik]

SVN checkout over HTTPS protocol requires password. Is it intentional
or just temporary server issue? I am behind a proxy that doesn't
support PROPFIND requests and I can't test SVN+SSH, because 22 port is
closed.

Site docs keep silence about that HTTPS is used at all. Shouldn't
authentication be asked only on write access in normal SVN setup?


BTW, link to "current svn tree" is broken here -
