[Bug 1835723] [NEW] std::bad_alloc during SVN update in CTest

[Miroslav Matějů]

Public bug reported:

After I upgraded my testing server from 16.04 to Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS the
last week, I keep getting errors during SVN update while running CTest
(version 3.10.2) which cause CTest to quit too early:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
  what():  std::bad_alloc
Aborted (core dumped)

This does not affect every run, yet it happens pretty often – I found
this error in 6 out of 8 runs during the last night.

CMake’s bug tracker claims this to have been fixed in CMake 3.11
(https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/issues/17854) but Ubuntu 18.04
is sticking with 3.10.

Installing the most recent CMake 3.14.5 from https://cmake.org/download/
(as per https://askubuntu.com/a/952929/250300) fixed the issue for me.

** Affects: cmake (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
