Hmmm. Interesting fix. Shouldn't it be farther down in the code,
though -- in the editor itself, effectively?

svn_wc_make_checkout_editor() just returns an editor. No checkout
takes place until someone starts driving that editor. It seems
improper to error because the target is a wc directory *at the time
the editor is created*. It should only be an error if the target is a
wc at the time the checkout is actually attempted (and, ideally, only
if it's a wc from a different URL than is being checked out, but
that's an optimization).

Let's see... open_root() calls prep_directory(), which looks like
this:

   static svn_error_t *
   prep_directory (svn_stringbuf_t *path,
                   svn_stringbuf_t *ancestor_url,
                   svn_revnum_t ancestor_revision,
                   svn_boolean_t force,
                   apr_pool_t *pool)
   {
     /* kff todo: how about a sanity check that it's not a dir of the
        same name from a different repository or something?
        Well, that will be later on down the line... */
   
     if (force) /* Make sure the directory exists. */
       SVN_ERR (svn_wc__ensure_directory (path, pool));
   
     /* Make sure it's the right working copy, either by creating it so,
        or by checking that it is so already. */
     return svn_wc__ensure_adm (path, ancestor_url, ancestor_revision,
        pool);
   }

I think that `todo' comment is a red herring. We could implement the
check directly here, but I think doing it in svn_wc__ensure_adm()
makes more sense. In fact, svn_wc__ensure_adm() is supposed to be
doing it, but (as its doc string says) it's currently not. It would
really depend on check_adm_exists(), doing it correctly, anyway, and
there's the root of the problem:

   /* Set *EXISTS to non-zero iff there's an adm area for PATH, and it
    * matches URL and REVISION.
    * ### todo: The url/rev match is not currently implemented.
    *
    * If an error occurs, just return the error and don't touch *EXISTS.
    */
   static svn_error_t *
   check_adm_exists (int *exists,
                     svn_stringbuf_t *path,
                     svn_stringbuf_t *url,
                     svn_revnum_t revision,
                     apr_pool_t *pool)
   {
      [...]
   }

If that url match were working right, this problem and maybe some
others would be solved.

So, I think the "right" way to fix this is to make check_adm_exists()
finally implement that check, and the behavior will propagate up.

Do you agree?
