Formal release notes are available:
https://subversion.apache.org/docs/release-notes/1.9.html
Of particular note, the client checkout format has *not* changed so
upgrades should *not* be required.
When reading a repository (file:// or running as a local server), an
improved fsfs version 7 is available with significant performance
improvements. An optional upgrade is possible to use the new features.
Without the upgrade, this is fully read/write compatible with the
version 6 fsfs as in svn-1.8.

While there are security issues in this time frame that affect usage as a
server (eg: linked into apache), this isn't possible here.

Highlights:
* Security fix for apache server plugin that we don't build or use
* sqlite performance improvements.
* bug fixes for edge cases and some other less common operations.
components: apr-1.4.6 -> 1.4.8 and apr-util-1.4.1 -> 1.5.2.
This is a post point-zero bug-fix / fix-sharp-edges release, including
some workarounds for UTF-8 for people who haven't yet turned on WITH_ICONV.
This is actually a fully functional build except:
* All internal shared libraries are static linked to make sure there
is no interference with ports (and to reduce build time).
* It does not have the python/perl/etc plugin or API support.
* By default, it installs as "svnlite" rather than "svn".
* If WITH_SVN added in make.conf, you get "svn".
* If WITHOUT_SVNLITE is in make.conf, this is completely disabled.
To be absolutely clear, this is not intended for any use other than
checking out freebsd source and committing, like we once did with cvs.
It should be usable for small scale local repositories that don't
need the python/perl plugin architecture.
