 That's a different issue. Using https is generally accepted best practice
 for website security and ensuring a valid download.

 I won't ask why we do that but it should probably be addressed in another
 ticket/discussion. If it is needed for a few misconfigured servers, then
 we should include a non-default option to {{{--trust-server-cert}}} for
 those servers only. Something like:

 {{{
 svn.trust_server_cert  yes
 }}}
