The discussion following issue #493 (which is 2 years old BTW) mentions
pysvn as a possible solution, but no one seems to have tackled this.

It seems strange to me that the access layer to svn, which itself is all
about remoteness, would not support remote repository access. And yes,
hopefully the trac code is layered such that dropping in something like
pysvn is easy - although the 2 years this issue has been pending speak a
different language.

I personally would prefer pysvn, because it would not require an update of
the svn server or client to 1.4.

BTW, I tried the suggested workaround with SVK - but that adds another
installation orgy (perl stuff in this case) with scores of dependencies. On
a server with no internet and no root privs this is just too much. I am
afraid trac is not for us.
