I use TortoiseSVN on WindowsXP and ran into an issue inside repository browser today.

Basically, I can browser/checkout fine at application level "https://domain/svn/app1". However, When I try to browse at the root level of the repository "https://domain/svn/", the following error msg displays:

OPTIONS of 'https://domain/svn': 200 OK

I try to access https://domain/svn in a web browser, I can see all the applications there.

Thanks

That means there is no actual SVN repo at this address (see this patch), but rather a collection of SVN repo (that your apache is showing you in your web browser).
Note: other reasons for this message to pop up can be found in the SO question "An SVN error (200 OK) when checking out from my online repo"

The "correct" error message would be:

> svn checkout svn://localhost/repos 
> svn: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'svn://localhost/repos' 
> svn: Can't connect to host 'localhost': Connection refused 

> $ svn checkout file://localhost/repos 
> svn: Unable to connect to a repository at URL 'file://localhost/repos' 
> svn: Unable to open an ra_local session to URL
