Cc Me!

Please remember to preview and use WikiFormatting, and note that you do not need to be in cc when you are the reporter. Your /usr/bin/svn does not appear to be the version that Apple ships with 10.6, as that version supports --trust-server-cert.

So please put Apple's svn back.

Or, a workaround would be to "sudo port install subversion"; MacPorts will then use its own Subversion instead of Apple's.

[ryandesign@…]

Did that work?

[tukietux@…]

Only saw the response now.. I'm still a n00b.. I'll try the second option.. Can't do the first because of a project I'm working on.. But BTW how can I restore the Apple svn?

[ryandesign@…]

One way would be to reinstall Mac OS X. Or you could try to locate the bits and pieces you need either by extracting them from the installer packages or by copying from another Snow Leopard machine, but it might be a challenge to identify all the bits and pieces that you need.

contents of the subversion port

[ryandesign@…]

If you wanted to avoid reinstalling Mac OS X, here's one strategy. Attached is the list of files installed by the Subversion port​. Probably Apple's standard Subversion install comes with a similar complement of files, though in /usr, not in /opt/local. Using this list, replacing /opt/local with /usr for each line, you could see if that file exists on a properly-functioning Snow Leopard machine. If it does, copy it to the Snow Leopard machine with the broken Subversion install.

now i'm installing subversion through macports, I'll try what you wrote when I have another Mac OS machine to copy the files from. Thanks :)

Looking through the bills of materials (/var/db/receipts/*.bom) it looks like you could fix your Apple Subversion install by just downloading and installing the ​Mac OS X 10.6.3 Combo Update.
