It's doesn't? It tells a sysadmin that they have a misconfigured repository line when they specify svn+foo://domain/path and foo is not a configured tunnel in .subversion/config. It's much better then throwing that exception on the floor. It's the only way I would know how to fix the bug.
Removed extra spaces.

This is not about logging, is it?

Well it's been about a year, so I don't remember. I'll review and update the ticket. I can tell you, the efect of this omission is, under some conditions, the list of known braches and tags will not populate a drop down select box. I believe it was like Build Parameterized or some form like that. The root cause of the issue was not being logged. We didn't know what to fix. The feature was unusable. I don't recall what the root cause was, but I feel it was related to the fact that we use ssh+svn and our ssh uses Kerberos for authentication. |
