.A new module stream: `subversion:1.14`
RHEL 8.4 introduces a new module stream, `subversion:1.14`. `Subversion 1.14` is the most recent Long Term Support (LTS) release.
Notable changes since `Subversion 1.10` distributed in RHEL 8.0 include:
* `Subversion 1.14` includes `Python 3` bindings for automation and integration of `Subversion` into the customer’s build and release infrastructure.
* A new `svnadmin rev-size` command enables users to determine the total size of a revision.
* A new `svnadmin build-repcache` command enables administrators to populate the `rep-cache` database with missing entries.
* A new experimental command has been added to provide an overview of the current working copy status.
* Various improvements to the `svn log`, `svn info`, and `svn list` commands have been implemented. For example, `svn list --human-readable` now uses human-readable units for file sizes.
* Significant improvements to `svn status` for large working copies have been made.
Compatibility information:
* `Subversion 1.10` clients and servers interoperate with `Subversion 1.14` servers and clients. However, certain features might not be available unless both client and server are upgraded to the latest version.
* Repositories created under `Subversion 1.10` can be successfully loaded in `Subversion 1.14`.
* `Subversion 1.14` distributed in RHEL 8 enables users to cache passwords in plain text on the client side. This behaviour is the same as `Subversion 1.10` but different from the upstream release of `Subversion 1.14`.
* The experimental `Shelving` feature has been significantly changed, and it is incompatible with shelves created in `Subversion 1.10`. See the link:http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.14#shelving[upstream documentation] for details and upgrade instructions.
* The interpretation of path-based authentication configurations with both global and repository-specific rules has changed in `Subversion 1.14`. See the link:http://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.14#compat-misc-authz[upstream documentation] for details on affected configurations.
To install the `subversion:1:14` module stream, use:
[literal]
----
# yum module install subversion:1.14

This is kind of a "metoo" post, but I wanted it to be known that this issue is affecting other people as well. I too have broken software after upgrading to RHEL8, due to the missing python-subversion bindings. I would be OK with a compiled package for python3 and/or an update to 1.14 for RHEL8. Thank you. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For information on the advisory (new module: subversion:1.14), and where to find the updated files, follow the link below.
