Memory leak in TortoiseProc 1.7.0

I have encountered a problem with TortoiseSVN 1.7.0.

 

Steps to Reproduce (Aspect 1):

 

1. Open Repo-browser from the context menu.

2. Type in the root URL of the SVN server with a terminal backslash character.

 

Dialog will now freeze and TortoiseProc will rapidly consume memory until all system memory is exhausted. Please make sure Task Manager is already open before trying this, as you may not be able to open Task Manager to terminate the process if you delay (memory leak is very fast).

 

URLs:

 

svn://svnserver (no problem, repository not found as expected).

svn://svnserver/ (causes memory leak).

svn://svnserver/repository (no problem, repository browsed as expected).

 

Steps to Reproduce (Aspect 2):

 

1. Open Repo-browser from the context menu.

2. Type in a repository URL.

3. Navigate back to root URL of SVN Server.

 

TortoiseProc will now crash and prompt user for an error report.

 

Observed on Windows 7 (x64) with 64-bit TortoiseSVN 1.7.0 installed. Server is a TortoiseSVN\bin\svnserve.exe instance on the same machine.
