[Svnmerge] [PATCH] fix source pathid selection

[Shaddy Baddah]

Hi,

I'm quite surprised that this bug exists, and has existed for so long... 
so I'm a little uncertain that I have uncovered a real problem.

In words, the problem is that I cannot specify the repository relative 
pathid as the merge source value to the --source switch. The following 
output describes the problem best:


$ python /tmp/svnmerge/svnmerge.py avail --bidirectional --log
svnmerge: multiple sources found. Explicit source argument (-S/--source) 
required.
The merge sources available are:
   /release-2
   /release-1
$ python /tmp/svnmerge/svnmerge.py avail --bidirectional --log --source 
/release-1
svnmerge: "/release-1" is neither a valid URL, nor an unambiguous 
substring of a repository path, nor a working directory

Actually, I have done a search, and a poster had already intimated that 
this problem existed 
(http://www.orcaware.com/pipermail/svnmerge/2006-May/000599.html), and 
proposed the same solution I have implemented by the attached patch.

I hope you will consider it for inclusion.

Regards,
Shaddy
