RE: svn propedit svn:log

Hi David,
 
Thanks for your feedback.
 
>> I don't know what pre-revprop-change script you're using in order to
make a comment on that aspect of it.

All I have is "exit 0" in by pre-revprop-change script.
 
But I find that the pre-revprop-change script itself is not accessed. I
have tested it with debug message and no debug file is created.
When the "space" is removed from the repository name the debug file is
created with the debug message.
 
What puzzles me is that the pre-commit hook works as expected.
 
>> URLs officially should not have spaces in them
 
My understanding is that space is an "unsafe" character and that they
need to be quoted with % character.
There does not appear to be any official ruling on it.
 
Thanks
Lakshman

You actually have a space in the repository's base URL which is
something you need to avoid. You may have to change your Apache
configuration to use something like http://xxxx/Common-Test or
http://xxxx/CommonTest instead of http://xxxx/Common Test. Otherwise,
you'll need to put "%20" for spaces in your URL. URLs officially should
not have spaces in them, but have them quoted with the % character.

However, that might not necessarily be the culprit. You need to take a
look at your pre-revprop-change hook to see if it is quoting the URL or
simply assuming the URL has no spaces in it. I've seen a few Subversion
utility scripts that had this issue, and putting quotation marks in
solved the problem.

I don't know what pre-revprop-change script you're using in order to
make a comment on that aspect of it.

        Hi All,

        I encountered an issue, not sure if this is a bug, known problem
or "feature" :)

        If the project url contains a "space" (http://xxxx/Common
<http://xxxx/Common> Test/Build/) then the pre-revprop-change script
fails to execute.

        If I use "svnadmin setlog" all is fine.

        The pre-commit script, on the other hand, executes as expected.

        Any thoughts ?

        Thanks
        Lakshman
