Hi Kannan,
I agree, that error message, while true, is not very helpful. I
committed your patch in r40504.
I made a few minor changes:
1) I tweaked the indentation on the if statement slightly
2) I changed the wording of the error message to be more specific.
3) I edited your log message. We try to keep the first line of the
log message under 80 characters so when it flashes by on the #svn-dev
channel and IRC the people there can get an idea what the change is
about -- see http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/www/hacking.html#log-messages.
This is not always possible of course, but we try.
Thanks,
Paul
