AW: SVN Merge silently fails when parent directory is unreadable

Hello,

I just want to add, that we now found a solution by allowing read access to the repository root for all users. This helps to get the merge command back on track, it correctly applies the expected diffs to the WC. It seems to have no problem with the fact that the directories on the second level still have access restrictions.

Situation now:
/repo-root => allowed
/repo-root/branches => forbidden
/repo-root/branches/source => allowed

Best Regards
Ruben
