I’m running Edge Rails and I have it as an SVN External in my vendor  
directory. For the last few days I’ve been getting these errors when I  
try to deploy with Capistrano:

\*\* [out :: [myserver.org](http://myserver.org)] svn: REPORT request failed on  
‘/svn/rails/!svn/vcc/default’  
\*\* [out :: [myserver.org](http://myserver.org)] svn: REPORT of ‘/svn/rails/!svn/vcc/default’:  
Could not read chunk size: connection was closed by server.  
([http://dev.rubyonrails](http://dev.rubyonrails).  
org)

And the vendor/rails directory doesn’t get the complete rails  
installation, it only gets some of the directories.

What’s happening? Is it related to those internet attacks that have  
been slowing things down?

Just wondering if anybody knows anything about this? My external Rails  
hasn’t been uploading successfully when I deploy with Capistrano.
