Can not make a branch of Inkscape SVN

[Ted Gould]

I've been unable to branch Inkscape SVN for about a week. It looks somewhat like a networking error, but I've tried on several different connections.

$ bzr branch https://inkscape.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/inkscape/inkscape/trunk trunk
bzr: ERROR: subvertpy.SubversionException: ("REPORT of '/svnroot/inkscape/!svn/vcc/default': Could not read response body: Secure connection truncated (https://inkscape.svn.sourceforge.net)", 175002)

Thanks for the bug report. I'll mark this as a duplicate of another
(seamingly unrelated) bug, which is about performance regressions.

sourceforge doesn't provide a very reliable svn server, but with this
performance regression the chances of seeing sf hang up on you
increase significantly since the connection has to be open much
longer.

I'm planning on releasing a 0.5.1 with fixes for this performance
regression this weekend.
