Bugreport: invalid xml file produced by: svn log --xml --verbose --use-merge-history --search "msg1"

[Martin Obermeir]

Hi all,




Example: svn log --xml --verbose --use-merge-history --search "msg1".



Details see below.


https://gist.github.com/anonymous/91aa228d6c22bff7ec2cbba2aecb2cd3

Environment:

Your operating system

The release and/or revision of Subversion
  - svn, version 1.9.7 (r1800392)
      compiled Aug 17 2017, 10:20:03 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu

I'd like to report a bug: "svn log --xml" produces an invalid xml when the "--use-merge-history" option is combined with "--search" The xml contains two closing "</logentry>" tags, but only one opening <logentry> tag. I could not find this bug in the issue tracker/mailing list. The bug can be easily reproduced with the script attached to this email, it is also available here: - Kubuntu 17.10 (Linux 4.13.0-17-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Mon Nov 6 10:04:08 UTC 2017 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux) - also trunk 1.11.0-dev confirmed by "danielsh" on IRC: http://sprunge.us/YYbL

The compiler and configuration options you built Subversion with
-  (from apt)
Any private modifications you made to your Subversion
-  (none)
The version of Berkeley DB you're running Subversion with, if any
-  (none)

- Expected output:
    xml with just one "</logentry>" line
- Actual output (see last lines):
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <log>
    <logentry
    reverse-merge="false"
    revision="3">
    <author>xyz</author>
    <date>2017-12-11T10:14:38.084171Z</date>
    <paths>
    <path
    kind="file"
    action="M"
    prop-mods="false"
    text-mods="true">/trunk/iota</path>
    </paths>
    <msg>msg1</msg>
    </logentry>
    </logentry>
    </log>

May I enter this bug to the issue tracker?

Best regards
Martin

Anything else that could possibly be relevant. Err on the side of too much information, rather than too little.
