Hm. At one point this was not true. I distinctly remember
needing to add some variant in order to get to WebDAV repos.
Maybe that has changed. That would be good, as it always seemed
like that should be the default.
Nope, that has never been true (at least for as long as I've
maintained the port).
What has been true on a couple of occasions is that either neon or
subversion's build system's interaction with neon has been broken
(entirely my fault) and so if you built subversion it wouldn't be
able to use neon and so you wouldn't be able to access WebDAV
repositories (via http or https).
Yes, perhaps that was it.
I just tested it, and sure enough, a regular "port install
subversion" did contain support for WebDAV, and one with the +no_neon
lacked that support.
To be honest, I never realized that WebDAV access was provided by
neon. There was probably a point where I was trying to trim down the
requirements to get Subversion installed, and had tried the
"+no_neon" variant -- and had then lost the WebDAV access. Or, as
you point out, the neon build was broken, and I misdiagnosed the
problem.
Anyway, my apologies for putting out incorrect information.
