Enhancing the "Using Subversion" Page: Adding a 'Troubleshooting' Section #16

Description

What do we suggest?

We suggest adding a 'Troubleshooting' section to the Using Subversion page. This section will provide information about potential issues and ways to solve them.

Details:

For example, while releasing a new update for our Advanced Views plugin, we encountered the 'svn: E175012: Connection timed out' error, even though we used the usual commands. After conducting some research, we found this issue in the Gutenberg repository, which discusses the same problem. The suggested in the issue solution worked for us as well. However, it's frustrating that such an aspect wasn't covered by any official documentation.

Why is it important?

The "Using Subversion" page describes the minimum SVN knowledge necessary for working with the WordPress.org plugins repository. This page is crucial, as the official SVN documentation mentioned on the page is neither extensive nor clear enough. Adding a troubleshooting section will help users resolve common issues more efficiently.
