Re: Re: VS: Subversion 1.5 beta1, "malformed URL for repository" whenmerging over http

More news on the malformed URL front.

I've just updated our server to the full 1.5 release, but I'm still
having this problem, only now I'm realizing that it's getting in the way
of merge tracking. I've now tested this with Apache 2 and Apache 2.2.

I've discovered something interesting, though. Let's take these URLs:

A1) http://foo.com/trunk
A2) http://foo.com/branch
B1) http://@foo.com/trunk
B2) http://@foo.com/branch

Now, If I checkout A1 and merge with A2, I get the error, but if I merge
with B2 instead, I'm fine.

Similarly, if I checkout B1 and merge with B2, I get the error, but if I
merge with A1 instead, I'm fine.

So, this means:

* The problem only happens when the server realizes that the operation
is intra-repository.

* The server doesn't realize that A1 and B1 are the same repository.

As I mentioned earlier, the work-around interferes with merge tracking,
and this is *because* svn doesn't realize that A1 and B1 are the same
repository, and no merges will be tracked between different repositories.

Just to keep everybody on the same page, the big difference between my
repository and the repositories of any open source program is that mine
doesn't have anonymous access.

I've just spent all night trying to build the trunk on Windows, but I've
had no luck.

Cheers,
