Hi,

I hope I've resolved most issues, here are ones I need to ask about:

Hmm, what I was trying to communicate was that if a NULL(or "") is passed,
this is an error that will be caught. I'm not quite sure what to write
here now.

The deprecated function is guaranteed to not have an execution path to
invoke-diff-cmd but the log-cmd.c has been fixed.

Not sure what you mean here?

I didn't find one, but perhaps I missed it?

---------- **** ------------

+ How does this parse "%%%f1%"? Is "%%f1%%" an error?

%%%f1% becomes %%f1% and %%f1%% becomes %f1%%, neither is an error.

However, %f1%% is parsed out as sub%, also, +%f1% ends up as +sub.

What you cannot do is: %%f1% to get %sub, it will render as %f1%.

If this is a show stopper, we could go back to the triple dash model
and not deal with escaping %'s, or choose another delimiter.

I'm not sure, what do others think?

I check for this condition before it reaches there. Neither "" nor
NULL value for invoke_diff_cmd is accepted, but an error is raised
before it reaches svn_io_create_custom_diff_cmd().
