Does that make sense?
It does not.
[...] No DAV headers there, so it's not a Subversion repository and not our
problem. Compare to:
$ curl --request OPTIONS --include https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf
Gah... I was comparing https://archive.apache.org/dist/ with
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/ and somehow it did not occur to me
that the former might not be a repository.
Thanks for setting me straight!
It is a confusing error message, though. The redirect "cycle" is only
Subversion that made it a cycle, and is not the real problem. We could
do better.
