Look at ICD-GPS-060.
10V into 50ohm, sub 50ns risetime and 20us pulse lenght is specified in figure 
3-2.

Modern CMOS drivers have fast rise times.  As long as the rise time is short 
relative to the cable length, it gets doubled if the end of the cable is an 
open circuit.

There is a big difference across logic families.  Many can drive 50 ohms.

RS-232 drivers are explicitly limited to reduce EMI.
