Access log from the subversion server
The log entries from the first time I ran the shell script have a time stamp of 07/Sep/2012:13:38:32-38:42. The second time I ran the shell script was at 07/Sep/2012:13:38:51-38:57.

Created attachment 610856 [details] Shell script which runs "svn mkdir --parents" with three nested directories Description of problem: I noticed this when writing an application with the Perl bindings, and later confirmed it when using the command-line client with similar options. If I use the --parents option when creating multiple directories in a subversion repository, and those directories already exist, the client generates additional directories that were not in the request. For example, a repeated request to create "test/one", "test/one/two", and "test/one/two/three" results in creating "test/one/two/one/two/three". Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.6.11-7.el6; also seen in 1.6.11-10.el5_8 How reproducible: Always (provided one starts with a non-existent parent directory). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run the attached shell script, giving in the URL of a new directory in a subversion repository. 2. Run the script again with the same URL. Actual results: It creates the child directories one/two/one/two/three. Expected results: Should have returned an error "405 Method Not Allowed". Additional info: I will also be adding the access logs from the subversion server which show the client sending requests to create directories that it shouldn't.
