I must be missing something here, is this patch applied to the current SVN source?
I have downloaded SVN 1.6.15 source from Tigris.org, and cant find the changes in the source. Also this patch is applied to a file : subversion/svnsync/sync.c but in my downloaded source there is only a file main.c in the svnsync directory.
We are for the moment stuck with this UTF-8 problem in one of our svn:ignore properties, and cant proceed with seting up this sync, so any pointers are welcome!
