RE: Re: Corrupt log message in repository

This still seems like an svn bug to me. Shouldn't the *server* enforce
any of these kinds of conventions a client must follow?

As a repository owner, it is difficult for me to control what clients
are being used, and I would expect the server to prevent repository
corruption even by potentially adversarial clients.

Okay that's what I was thinking this might be. This is a TortoiseSVN
bug. Per our documentation the log message must be UTF-8 with LF line
endings:

http://svn.collab.net/svn-doxygen/svn__client_8h.html#a10

TortoiseSVN should either convert to the proper format or error out.
They can handle that by using svn_subst_translate_string() like the
command line client does in svn_cl__get_log_message():
