svn command line client - url encoding

Hi,

     I have encountered a problem with the URL encoding for repository
names when using the command line client.

     If I use the command line:

     svn co "https://ea_repos/svn/blender/trunk/Py modules, xls [latest
ver]/"

     I get the response:

     svn: URL
'https://ea_repos/svn/blender/trunk/Py%20modules,%20xls%20[latest%20ver]/'
is not properly URI-encoded

     But if I manually "encode" the URL as follows it works.

     svn co
https://ea_repos/svn/blender/trunk/Py%20modules%2C%20xls%20%5Blatest%20ver%5D/

     or

     svn co https://ea_repos/svn/blender/trunk/Py\ modules,\ xls\
%5blatest\ ver%5d/

     This seems to contradict the manual that says the command line will
automatically encode quoted urls.

     Using: svn, version 1.6.9 (r901367) in bash on 2.6.29-gentoo-r5

     Is this a problem with svn or bash?

     Thanks

     Glen
