Why this configuration is not valid?
It worked in 1.6 servers. It seems like regression.

I want to avoid use SVNPath for every leaf repo in the root.
SVNParentPath is intended for such purpose.

Also I want to use SVNListParentPath to autogenerate normal listing.
It's impossible with multiple SVNPath.

Please note that problem is only with "commit". Other commands work
just fine.

So I suppose it is bug.
