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.
Relnotes: yes
fixes and quality of life improvements.
While there are security issues in this time frame that affect usage as a
server (eg: linked into apache), this isn't possible here.
Off by default, build behaves normally.
WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to
start build from anywhere in the tree.
Still need to add real targets under targets/ to build packages.

1. 50+% of NO_PIE use is fixed by adding -fPIC to INTERNALLIB and other
build-only utility libraries.
2. Another 40% is fixed by generating _pic.a variants of various libraries.
3. Some of the NO_PIE use is a bit absurd as it is disabling PIE (and ASLR)
where it never would work anyhow, such as csu or loader. This suggests
there may be better ways of adding support to the tree. Many of these
cases can be fixed such that -fPIE will work but there is really no
reason to have it in those cases.
4. Some of the uses are working around hacks done to some Makefiles that are
really building libraries but have been using bsd.prog.mk because the code
is cleaner. Had they been using bsd.lib.mk then NO_PIE would not have
been needed.
We likely do want to enable PIE by default (opt-out) for non-tree consumers
(such as ports). For in-tree though we probably want to only enable PIE
(opt-in) for common attack targets such as remote service daemons and setuid
utilities. This is also a great performance compromise since ASLR is expected
to reduce performance. As such it does not make sense to enable it in all
utilities such as ls(1) that have little benefit to having it enabled.

This is currently an opt-in build flag. Once ASLR support is ready and stable
it should changed to opt-out and be enabled by default along with ASLR.
Each application Makefile uses opt-out to ensure that ASLR will be enabled by
default in new directories when the system is compiled with PIE/ASLR. [2]
Mark known build failures as NO_PIE for now.
The only known runtime failure was rtld.

and finish the job. ncurses is now the only Makefile in the tree that
uses it since it wasn't a simple mechanical change, and will be
addressed in a future commit.
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.

Support for this has already existed ^/head/contrib/subversion
but it was not enabled in usr.bin/svn/svn/Makefile.

the least common denominator and disable them across the board. This
allows svnlite to build and run on all FreeBSD architectures.

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.
