I understand that problem, so I don't object to svn_wc_status2->url when
you don't have an entry. I just wanted it to be set all the time. An item
can have one and just one URL, regardless whether it exists only in the
WC, only in the repository or both.
I and dlr discussed this on irc, and the conclusion seems to be that we
will have sv_wc_entry2->url set, either from the svn_wc_entry_t if that
exists, or calculated by the status code if the file only exists in the
repository. dlr will produce a patch to this effect, he said.
