The handbook points users to use the HTTPS protocol for retrieving the FreeBSD source code with subversion. The two instances I found were: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/svn.html https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/makeworld.html Currently using http:// fails with various messages depending on the day it seems. Sometimes it complains about depth, sometimes that the hostname is not available. Using svn:// instead of https:// corrects the issue somewhat, but the svn protocol is not a robust in my experience. I have assumed this to be a documentation issue as I have heard nothing about an official change away from https and my query on the ARM mailing list did not elicit any responses indicating such a change. However, someone did respond and tell me they also had to switch away from https a few weeks ago.
Which endpoint do you retrieve from ? I'm testing from 2001:41c8:112:8300::e6a:0 right now and it looks fine.
That's svnmir.bme.freebsd.org, btw.

(In reply to Kurt Jaeger from comment #1) Sorry, I was rushing this morning. I followed the handbook instructions. I will need to check my output later to verify resolved endpoint.
