This would be a good start for a log message. Log messages should also
include a list of all changed files and symbols, as explained in
http://subversion.tigris.org/hacking.html#log-messages (which is pointed
to from #patches, where Hyrum linked to).

Subversion normally outputs "Index: subversion/mod_dav_svn/repos.c" here.

The indentation here is misleading: it does not reflect the nesting of the
operators. It should be:

      if ((resource->info->restype != DAV_SVN_RESTYPE_PARENTPATH_COLLECTION)
          && resource->info->repos_path
          && ((resource->info->repos_path[1] != '\0')
              || dav_svn__get_list_parentpath_flag(resource->info->r)))

Also, please wrap at 79 columns. (See
http://subversion.tigris.org/hacking.html#coding-style.)

Thanks,

Daniel
