You will probably not be able to get the sources for 9.1-RC2 any 
more. I hope you already have the Ports installed, then you can 
do the following steps to get the sources for 9.1 (to rebuild and 
upgrade to 9.1-RELEASE).

cd /usr/ports/devel/subversion
make install
make clean
cd
svn checkout svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/releng/9.1 /usr/src

And then follow the documentation in the handbook, e.g. "Chapter 
25 Updating and Upgrading FreeBSD" [1].
