Package: subversion
Version: 1.5.6dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

svn info (and eventually other commands, too) fail if the path to the
working copy given as parameter is a symlink:

$ svnadmin create svn
$ svn co file://`pwd`/svn wc
Checked out revision 0.
$ ln -s wc symlink
$ svn info wc
Path: wc
URL: ...
$ svn info symlink
svn: '.' is not a working copy
svn: Can't open file '.svn/entries': No such file or directory
$ svn info symlink/
svn: '.' is not a working copy
svn: Can't open file '.svn/entries': No such file or directory
$ svn info `readlink -f symlink`
Path: /tmp/wc
URL: ...

Andreas
