Hi,

Despite from the fact that the quotes thing doesn't have anything to
do with it, this is not a bug, but a deliberate decision. We only
escape a handful of characters (see docs for svn_uri_autoescape) that
can't mean anything in an URI. Now, # is probably safe for our
purposes and since we don't allow it in URIs anyway, we could probably
add it to the table.

Note that this autoescaping is just a convenience. Scripts should
make sure to add properly escaped URLs to be robust.

Thanks,
//Peter
