Re: TSVN 1.5.5 shows a strange folder in freshly created repository

Hi Stefan,

The earlier post showed the paths differently. Hence I am resending the mail
after stripping the hyperlinks out of the URLs.

Here are some diagnostics -

The test folder is the repository folder located at -
\\filesrv\xxx\yyy\zzz\AllwynD\test

 The user_sandbox folder is the sandbox located at -
\\filesrv\xxx\yyy\zzz\AllwynD\user_sandbox

The above two URLs are as seen in the Windows Explorer.

Now,

When I use Shell Extension "TortoiseSVN - Repo-Browser" in the test folder,
the repo browser shows the repo URL as - *file:////*
filesrv/xxx/yyy/zzz/AllwynD/test and* also a folder "T" within it.*

When I use Shell Extension "TortoiseSVN - Repo-Browser" in the user_sandbox
folder, the repo browser shows the repo URL as -
*file://*filesrv/xxx/yyy/zzz/AllwynD/test and
*without the folder "T" in it.*

I wonder why the paths are different in both the cases above. I also tried a
fresh checkout but it does not help.

Regards,

Allwyn.
