directory problem on 'svn ci'

From: Andreas Wolff <rusty_at_ptbv.de>

Hello everybody,

Today I encountered an unusual behaviour with my newly updated
Subversion version (Win32, version 1.6.15):

Just as always, a simple commit, using 'svn ci', still fires up my
configured editor to edit a corresponding svn-commit.tmp file.
The problem is, that this file gets created within the wrong directory:
not within the current working directory, but one level above!
The effect is, that after finishing and saving a log message the
'commit' won't find a 'svn-commit.tmp' in CWD.

This happens with gvim.exe, notepad.exe and even with the vintage
'edit'. Investigation with process-explorer indicates that the editor's
process gets started into the wrong CWD.

Can someone please confirm this is a bug?
Or maybe point to a related configuration setting? As working with -m is
tedious and annoying.

Greetings,
Andreas
