How to download from SVN repository from behind a firewall

I work behind a firewall. The firewall is configured to allow http/https only from internet explorer(not even FF or chrome). I want to download from a remote SVN repository.

No, this is not possible without special setup. Even the SVN client does not directly allow this.

This question is impossible to answer without further information about your network setup / firewall.

At any rate, if your firewall is configured to only allow browsing using IE, it is probably not a good idea to try and circumvent it (even if it should be technically possible). You might be breaking access rules at your place.

Ask your network admin for a solution, that's his/her job."
