        Hi,

While trying some code around the log api I found the following error
descriptions on querying unavailable url's. The 'svn log URL' syntax gives a
somewhat useful error output

-- Subversion 1.4
# svn log http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/qq
svn: REPORT request failed on '/repos/svn/!svn/bc/29335/trunk/qq'
svn: '/repos/svn/!svn/bc/29335/trunk/qq' path not found

-- Subversion 1.5.x_at_29330
# svn log http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/qq
svn: '/repos/svn/!svn/bc/29335/trunk/qq' path not found

Subversion 1.5 removes the request noise, nice...

Now I tried the more advanced syntax to query two paths at the same time

-- Subversion 1.4
# svn log http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/ subversion qq
svn: REPORT request failed on '/repos/svn/!svn/bc/29335/trunk'
svn: REPORT of '/repos/svn/!svn/bc/29335/trunk': 200 OK
(http://svn.collab.net)

-- Subversion 1.5.x_at_29330
# svn log http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/ subversion qq
svn: REPORT of '/repos/svn/!svn/bc/29335/trunk': 200 OK
(http://svn.collab.net)

This last one does not even show there was an error at the subversion level
and gives an even more cryptic error than 1.4.

I would expect a more useful error message in all cases.

When sending this message I tried the same over https:

-- Subversion 1.4
# svn log https://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/ subversion qq
svn: REPORT request failed on '/repos/svn/!svn/bc/29336/trunk'
svn: REPORT of '/repos/svn/!svn/bc/29336/trunk': Could not read chunk size:
Secure connection truncated (https://svn.collab.net)

-- Subversion 1.5.x_at_29330
# svn log https://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/ subversion qq
svn: REPORT of '/repos/svn/!svn/bc/29336/trunk': Could not read chunk size:
Secure connection truncated (https://svn.collab.net)

Did I trigger another problem with this testcase?

(I got the same messages on another 1.4.6 server I tried and on both Windows
and FreeBSD; so it does not seem to be a problem on either the server or my
client.)
