Looks like a bug to me. The @ symbol is used on the end of a repository
URL to indicate a peg revision, e.g. URL@123. That would mean the peg
revision URL handling code in Subversion should be either smart enough
to only look for @ that is followed by digits and then the end of the
URL, or @ should be disallowed in URLs. I favour peg URL processing
handling @ correctly.
