[TSVN] Propfind request failed.

Hi devs.

When a log view for a rev is shown, where a file has been deleted, as
indicated in the bottom pane, double clicking on the name of the deleted
file invokes an error dialog.

"PROPFIND request failed on" followed by the full path to what looks
like the location within the repository .
The message then repeated the same full path followed by the words "path
not found".
This raises two issues.

Maybe the user double click on deleted files could be intercepted and
either totally ignored or replaced with a TSVN generated friendlier
message. This isn't something I'm adamant about, because it does tell
you what was wrong but the text is small and needs careful reading.

The second issue is the broadcast of the repository internal path which
maybe someone more net savy might consider a security issue. I'm not
saying it is, just asking the question.

In my case it read
'/svn/SpecialsRepos/!svn/bc/463/Branches/... followed by the remainder
of the path and filename.

Peter
