I'm not sure what to do now. In working on this, I just noticed in the
doxygen for svn_opt_args_to_target_array2 (svn_opt.h):
* On each URL target, do some IRI-to-URI encoding and some
* auto-escaping. On each local path, canonicalize case and path
* separators, and silently skip it if it has the same name as a
* Subversion working copy administrative directory.
Does that mean I should make a new svn_opt_args_to_target_array3
function that returns an error chain for administrative directories?
It looks pretty invasive just within Subversion's codebase to change
this behavior. If I do that, would it be a reasonable implementation
of svn_opt_args_to_target_array2 that just called s_o_a_t_a3 and
dropped any admin-directory errors before returning? That's my
inclination at the moment.
