Has anyone figured out the cause of this, or happen to know which versions of SVN are affected? We've run into this while trying to upgrade our work servers from 1.4.4 to 1.6.6, and it causes our pre-commit hooks to fail in our test environment. I'm really pushing for the auto merge-tracking features in 1.5+ and want to use the most recent version possible, but this is a troubling problem. Is there an SVN bug filed for this, and hopefully a workaround or patch for the time being?
