RE: [PATCH] ra_serf:commit.c: add missing strdup

                Roman,

The add_directory() function had a similar problem, so if you apply a
workaround you might want to do that there too.

I nominated the fixes for backport to 1.8.x.

Thanks for your detailed bug report!

The file context created in add_file() is supposed to survive beyond the
end of function, so it needs its own copy of copy_path.

The failure scenario was observed in git-svn usage, with errors like

perl: subversion/libsvn_subr/dirent_uri.c:2489: svn_fspath__skip_ancestor:
Assertion `svn_fspath__is_canonical(child_fspath)' failed.
