Tortoise SVN Error - %23 instead of # in local path

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen!


I encountered the following problem - here is the message:

*In file*
*
 'D:\Development\SVN\Releases\TortoiseSVN-1.7.3\ext\subversion\subversion\libsvn_wc\wc_db.c'
*
* line 2890: assertion failed (svn_dirent_is_ancestor(wcroot->abspath,*
* local_abspath))*


I found the mistake, it was a wrong character in the external path.
I copied / pasted the path from tortoise to a differente tortoise window
and it inserted "*C%23*" instead of "*C#*".

That looks similar to issue 4073:
http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4073
but I can't tell from your description what you have done.  Where in the
path does the %23 occur?  What does the 'correct' path look like?  What
does the 'incorrect' path look like?
