macbookpro-ag:~/D1-3 gun$

What the Hell is this ???

I can checkout files, which should not exist in this branch in this
revision.
The path i got seems to be redirected to the files in the directory from
their previos location in the path D2.
This is the same over http:// interface.

This is not what i expected. I expect a message, that their are no files
in that revision.

Here are the commands for redo the scenario.

#svnadmin create --fs-type bdb REP
svnadmin create REP
svn co file:///$HOME/REP WC
cd WC
svn mkdir D1
svn ci -m "add first directory D1"
svn cp D1 D2
svn ci -m "make a copy of D1 to D2"
cd D2
svn mkdir d22
cd d22
echo "test" > test22
svn add test22
cd ..
svn ci -m "put a directory and a file to branch D2"
cd ..
cd D1
svn up
svn merge file:///$HOME/REP/D2_at_2 file:///$HOME/REP/D2_at_3 .
svn ci -m "merge changes from rev 2,3 from D2 to D1"
cd ../..
svn co file:///$HOME/REP/D1 D1-1
cd D1-1
svn info
cd d22
svn info
cd ../..
svn co -r 3 file:///$HOME/REP/D1 D1-2
cd D1-2
svn info
ls -al
cd ..
svn co -r 3 file:///$HOME/REP/D1/d22 D1-3
cd D1-3
svn info

I hope to here from you soon.

With kind regards

Alexander Gun
