Long Answer:
Actually what is happening is this:
- Inside svn_client_args_to_target_array():
- It is determined there is no peg revision (the peg splitting logic
bails on the trailing slash)
- Then the string 'svn+ssh://svn@10.0.1.1/' is passed the
canonicalising function
- The trailing slash is removed to make it canonical
- The result is passed back in the targets array
- Inside subsequent command processing functions:
- At some point the target is passed to svn_opt_parse_path() to
extract the peg revision (if any)
- svn_opt_parse_path() does not see a peg revision (because we
removed the trailing slash) and so interprets
10.0.1.1 as a peg, and an invalid one at that.
The "solution" here is the only proper way to "escape" the '@' inside
a path is by putting a trailing '@' in the target string.
Short Answer: It's not a bug, it's a feature! :)
