The only thing that could be of interest is "We are skipping tests
around $SVN, because your Git was built without a feature that
requires platform support of feature $SVN, which in turn was caused
because NO_$SVN=UnfortunatelyYes was in your config.mak.autogen
file.  You could 'apt-get install $SVN' to lift this artificial
limitation in your Git if you wanted to".

But the test prereq is probably a bit too roundabout way for that
kind of information ;-)
