Re: Re: TortoiseSVN revision 24088 exception

Today I got a very similar message, when trying to merge. I was going
to post a new thread but the same "assertion failed" message for the
same function appears in my message:

---------------------------
Subversion Exception!
---------------------------
Subversion encountered a serious problem.
Please take the time to report this on the Subversion mailing list
with as much information as possible about what
you were trying to do.
But please first search the mailing list archives for the error message
to avoid reporting the same problem repeatedly.
You can find the mailing list archives at
http://subversion.apache.org/mailing-lists.html

Subversion reported the following
(you can copy the content of this dialog
to the clipboard using Ctrl-C):

In file
'D:\Development\SVN\Releases\TortoiseSVN-1.7.12\ext\subversion\subversion\libsvn_wc\wc_db.c'
line 11820: assertion failed (svn_dirent_is_absolute(local_abspath))
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

Here's what I was doing:

1. I switched my working copy from a branch of one project in my
repository to the trunk of the same project.
2. I did TortoiseSVN->Merge in the context menu
3. I selected "merge a range of revisions" and hit the "next" button
4. I replaced the absolute URL of the trunk like
http://example.com/repo/some/repo/paths/Proj1/trunk with the shortened
path /some/repo/paths/Proj1/branches/mybranch
5. I hit the "Show Log" button next to "Revision range to merge"

At this point I got the exception message. Hitting "OK" on the message
shows an empty "show log" dialog titled
"\some\repo\paths\Proj1\branches\mybranch - Select revision range -
TortoiseSVN". The only content is a message:

  'C:\Users\btfritz\AppData\Local\Temp' is not a working copy
  (Double-click to clear error message)

Double-clicking in the window clears the error message to show an
empty log with new message, "For complete history deselect 'stop on
copy/rename'
