These changes don't make sense... the close_edit() is the key factor here.
You want to call close_edit() just once per operation. So if you have
multiple roots, then you must use editor navigation rather than ROOT_PATH.
Consider:
$ svn commit some/dir another/dir
or
$ svn update some/dir another/dir
The repository URL corresponding to "." is passed when the session is
opened. Then you fetch the appropriate editor (no root path!). Then navigate
down to each of "some/dir" and "another/dir" and start the commit/update
operation. When both are complete, then you call close_edit().
With the model below, you would expect the client to call
get_commit_editor() twice -- once with "some/dir" and once with
"another/dir", but then you lose the atomicity of the commit operation
implied by the single close_edit() call.
Cheers,
