The paths within the patch will be created based on the folder where the
"Show Log" was initiated from. For example, if I have the following folder
structure:
trunk\alpha\beta\delta
and I select "Show Log" for trunk, the path will be
alpha\beta\delta\file.txt.
If I select "Show Log" for beta, the path will be delta\file.txt
