Does anyone know if version 3 of VisualSVN server supports HTTP compression? It was in 2.0 then dropped in 2.0.4 and I thought it was meant to be incorporated back into 3 but now can’t find any references (Visual SVN is very light on documentation).

A:
No, VisualSVN Server doesn't support HTTP compression and most likely will not support it in future because of strange memory leaks in mod_deflate.
But Subversion deltas already self-compressed so there is no big benefit to use HTTP compression for Subversion traffic.
