svnwrap: fix handling of quotable URLs (fixes #197, refs #132)
The way hgsubversion handles URLs that may or may not be quoted is
somewhat fragile. As part of fixing issue 132 in 925ff8c5989c, the
path component of URLs was always quoted. The URL has been attempted
encoded since the initial check-in.
The fix from 925ff8c5989c was incomplete; reverting it allows us to
clone a URL with a '~' in it.[1] Encoding the URL as UTF-8 seldom
works as expected, as the default string encoding is ASCII, causing
Python to be unable to decode any URL containing an 8-bit
character.
The core problem here is that we don't know whether the URL specified
by the user is quoted or not. Rather than trying to deal with this
ourselves, we pass the problem on to Subversion. Then, we obtain the
URL from the RA instance, where it is always quoted. (It's worth
noting that the editor interface, on the other hand, always deals with
unquoted paths...)
Thus, the following invariants should apply to SubversionRepo
attributes:
- svn_url and root will always be quoted.
- subdir will always be unquoted.
Tests are added that verify that it won't affect the conversion
whether a URL is specified in quoted or unquoted form. Furthermore, a
test fixture for this is added *twice*, so that we can thoroughly test
both quoted and unquoted URLs. I'm not adding a test dedicated to
tildes in URLs; it doesn't seem necessary.
