Why it succeeds is easy to explain. Likewise, why it should fail is easy to
understand.
With the new location-segments code, it would be easy to write an
svn_repos_youngest_common_ancestor() function (like the
svn_client__get_youngest_common_ancestor() I wrote for the client side)
which could be employed by the dir-delta code and used to verify that
what-you-have and what-you-want share a single line of history in the update
case. It could also be used to safeguard the switch case by complaining if
what-you-have and what-you-want have no common ancestor at all (so you don't
accidentally switch to some arbitrary tree location).
