New issue 146 by cmpil... at gmail.com: 1.7 change: Permanent HTTP redirects
are automatically followed.
http://code.google.com/p/svnbook/issues/detail?id=146
From the Subversion 1.7 release notes:
{{{
In the past, when the Subversion client encountered an HTTP redirect
response from the server, it displayed an obtuse, and rarely-useful error
message. Subversion 1.7 improves the situation by following permanent
redirects (301 Moved Permanently) for svn update and svn info, and
providing a more useful error message on temporary redirects (302 Found and
307 Temporary Redirect).
}}}
Client behavior is probably disinteresting from the book's perspective, but
it might make for a good suggestion for admins who need to relocate a
repository (leave behind a permanent redirect if possible).
