Because of the switch from plain svn protocol to svn+ssh I had to change the
protocol and the host part of the URL. Id did not change the subfolder. I
know that I have to use the switch command when moving to another subfolder.
The only thing different is that the host part of the URL actually is a
Putty session name and not a DNS host name.
