Unhelpful error message when SVN URL is incorrect
The following command:
svn co http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/branches/build/win32/
reports
svn: URL 'http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/branches/build/win32' doesn't exist
which is to be expected, as I made up the URL.
However, if I do
svn co http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/build/win32/
followed by
svn switch http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/branches/build/win32/ win32
The response is:
svn: REPORT of '/repos/svn/!svn/vcc/default': 200 OK (http://svn.collab.net)
It's not exactly obvious that it really is an error (200 OK looks OK)
and the message says nothing about what went wrong (assuming that
something did go wrong).
This is using the latest SVN Windows client from CollabNet:
svn, version 1.6.2 (r37639)
compiled May 8 2009, 19:24:44
Copyright (C) 2000-2009 CollabNet.
I've searched the Bug database and cannot find anything directly relevant.
Is this a new bug that needs to be reported?
