So if a repository uses SVNParentPath, the repository name returned
will be whatever the client decides it should be - it could be an IP
address, or (using /etc/hosts) any arbitrary name. Whilst
non-SVNParentPath repositories use the name of the repository folder
on the server.

Seems inconsistent to me - why not just rev the function to always use
whatever the client provides in the URI, instead of doing different
things depending on a logically completely unrelated aspect of the
server configuration?
