s/svn/WebDAV/g

The correct term to use here would be WebDAV over http (instead of svn over
http). I suppose the reason for blocking would be that WebDAV is an
extension of the http protocol. It adds certain methods like PROPFIND, COPY
etc. So if your ISP blocks anything other than the basic HTTP methods
(get,post, head,put,delete,options,trace) it will block WebDAV.

https is generally transparently proxied, so that should solve your problem.
