[Trac] SVN repository access from HTTPS

[Emmanuel Blot]

Is there any news from Edgewall to support https access to the Trac 
repository ?

As already expressed by another user on this ML, https:// access to Trac 
repository would be very nice:

Users behind proxies (which has befallen many of us), who want to 
retrieve the Trac source from the repository, are in trouble:

Enterprise proxies usually do not support DAV extension to HTTP. 
Therefore, Subversion protocol is filtered out by the proxy (PROPFIND 
HTTP command for example cannot be relayed by non-DAV enabled proxies)

If Edgewall were offering https access to their Subversion repository, 
the proxy issue would not exist anymore: HTTPS cannot be analysed / 
filtered by proxies: packets are simply forwarded by the proxy, as the 
latter is not able to parse the encrypted (browser - repository) stream.

I'm using such a transmission channel to access another repository from 
my office, and it works quite smoothly.

Thanks,
Emmanuel
