New description:

 The URL
 https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/contrib/restore_ports/restore_ports.tcl
 (and apparently any other URL on that host) responds with a 403 Forbidden.

 This gets in the way of the migration procedure described at
 wiki:Migration (which probably many people are going through these days
 after the recent OS X upgrade release)

Comment:

 It seems access to any part of the repository is now forbidden:

 {{{
 $ svn ls https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports
 svn: E170013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL
 'https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports'
 svn: E175013: Access to '/repository/macports' forbidden
 }}}

 This affects all developers. And unfortunately, due to the recent rsync
 server problems, the only workaround available was to tell users to switch
 their MacPorts installations to use the svn server instead of the rsync
 server, so now those users will also experience errors yet again.

 Keith said all of the Mac OS Forge infrastructure was rebooted, so perhaps
 this is related.
