Package: emacs24
Version: 24.2+1-2
Severity: normal

vc-update and other vc-*-commands fail to detect an svn controlled
directory when the directory is a symlink to an svn controlled
directory.

The new SVN working copy directory tree only has .svn directory at
the topmost level and it seems emacs does 'chdir("..")' or something
equivalent when it tries to find the .svn directory. However, if 
directory A is a symlink to an svn working copy directory B, then
looking at A/.. is not the right place to look for .svn; instead,
emacs should note that A is a symlink, readlink() and look at B/..
instead.

Cheers,
Juha
