svn+ssh://host/some/path/here runs 'ssh host svnserve -t' and the path
is passed within the ra_svn protocol. Next time please don't make me
have to reverse engineer a shell script in order to answer such a simple
question :)

It works just fine on the command line when I pass it paths and echo back out the parts, but when I attempt to actually run it (by accessing a repo with svn+ssh), $PATH does not get set to the path being passed in... it is just set to '-t'. However, when I try to access a common repo (where PATH is left unadulterated), it serves up the repo just fine. Is the path being passed encoded somehow? Is there are way to access it?
