Hi,

I'm running into a problem with the info2 call in the 1.6 JavaHL library. I am 
attempting to use this to fake password validation for a user, so if this is a 
bass-ackwards way of doing things, please let me know. I issue two calls to 
svnclient.info2. The first one does an info2 on the local, checked out 
directory, and the callback stores the serverUrl (gotten using the getUrl() 
call). I get the correct value:
        http://10.0.62.148/svn/myproject
The second call then does an svnclient.info2 on the serverUrl. This second call 
throws a ClientException:
        2012-08-27 15:21:57,446 [main] ERROR P42svnMain -

If I do an svn info from the command line, it works fine:
mporwit-wsl[script]$ svn --username p42svn info 
http://10.0.62.148/svn/myprojectAuthentication realm: <http://10.0.62.148:80> 
myproject subversion repository
Password for 'p42svn': 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
ATTENTION!  Your password for authentication realm:

   <http://10.0.62.148:80> myproject subversion repository

can only be stored to disk unencrypted!  You are advised to configure
your system so that Subversion can store passwords encrypted, if
possible.  See the documentation for details.

You can avoid future appearances of this warning by setting the value
of the 'store-plaintext-passwords' option to either 'yes' or 'no' in
'/home/mporwit/.subversion/servers'.

So I'm confused as to why info2 is failing. It seems to be dropping the last 
element of the path, which is another thing I'm confused about. Pointers to 
what I am doing wrong are appreciated, as would be pointers on how to better 
validate a user password prior to doing a commit on the repo.

I'm not subscribed to the mailing list, so an explicit CC would be greatly 
appreciated.

Thanks,

Marcin
