Win32 Installer

I've created a subversion 1.4.2 win32 installer with a few fixes.  The
packaged binaries are from D.J. Heap's build.  Given that there were
recognised problems that have been carried through for a number of versions
I am placing a preview download before the main download is made available.
The preview download location is here (watch wrapping):
 
http://www.ebswift.com/Common/AspCommon/Download/FileDownloadToClient.aspx?F
ile=/Misc/svn-1.4.2-setup.exe
 
Please review the installer and reply to the group as to what needs to be
fixed for this release and what can perhaps be worked on for future
releases.

P.S. Please do not publicise this download location as it is not an official
download, and I don't want my site's bandwidth to be hammered.

I've installed svn-1.4.2 on my Windows XP machine without any
problems. I didn't run specific tests, I just cofirm that installer
works.

Could you make the new installer available under a different name than
the old installer? For example svn-1.4.2-setup-2.exe? Or
svn-1.4.2a-setup.exe? (Though the latter implies a new svn version
which wouldn't be true...)

Having different names may prevent confusion when people post to
users@ later on.


bye,

Erik.

Tested the installer and package:

Check exe with AVG virus scanner: OK
Compared installed binaries with the zip package: OK 
Checked if all files are installed: OK
Tried some basic svn actions: OK
Check the contents of the start menu: OK 
Checked the licenses from the Start menu: OK
Uninstall: OK

There's still one minor issue in the installer: the welcome text in the
installer still has the 2005 copyright and the incorrect grammar. This
has been fixed in r21516 and proposed for backport to 1.4.x.

I'd say ship this version and fix it in 1.4.3.

I also propose to backport all changes on trunk needed to make the
current installer to 1.4.x. Currently we have 4 revisions in STATUS with
one vote, so if you look at those and vote for them too we can backport
them. Can you also add the revisions in which you changed the perl code
in the STATUS file? So we can backport those too?

thanks,

Lieven
