Hello, below is my shell script that raises the svn segfault for me. The issue is, doing a relocate while having an external that is not in the working copy. It raised for me, since I got one automated instance that automatically sets externals for a repository, but does not need to check it out itself, so it updates with "--ignore-externals", now I tried to relocate that daemons working copy, svn segfaulted. Its no big issue for me, since I can always revert to do a full checkout instead, or update without --ignore-externals, relocate and delete the externals in the working copy.
Still I guess, a segfault never should be not a bug, so I report it. Operating System is Debian Jessie, if you no need any more info just ask.
