Problems with UNC Repositories

Hello,

Tortoise has a problem with accessing unc paths on a network share that
contains whitespaces. I talked to one of the developers of TortoiseSVN and
they told me that the problem is due to the Subversion libraries. Currently
we have to work with the svn 1.5.x version to handle this problem. Can you
tell me when this problem will be fixed?

Thanks 

	Tobi

The first step is to find out if the problem is reproducible using  
trunk, and if not which revision fixed the problem.  That revision, or  
set of revisions, can then be proposed for backport to 1.5.x.

If the problem still exists in trunk, providing a patch which fixes it  
would certainly increase the probability that the bug is fixed in  
1.5.x.  When doing so, please follow our standard patch guidelines,
