git-svn: regression with funny chars in svn repo url

["Panagiotis Vossos" <pavossos@gmail.com>]

I keep a copy of the gtk+ svn repository on my machine and I have
noticed the following bug with git-svn:

~/gitproj/gtk+$ which git-svn
/usr/local/bin/git-svn

~/gitproj/gtk+$ ls -l /usr/local/bin/git-svn
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root staff 39 2008-03-30 07:45 /usr/local/bin/git-svn ->
../encap/git-1.5.4_20080328/bin/git-svn

~/gitproj/gtk+$ git-svn --version
git-svn version 1.5.4.5 (svn 1.4.6)

~/gitproj/gtk+$ git-svn rebase
Apache got a malformed URI: REPORT request failed on
'/svn/gtk+/!svn/vcc/default': Unusable URI: it does not refer to this
repository at /usr/local/bin/git-svn line 3821


This bug did not exist in a previous version:

vozzer@kermit:~/gitproj/gtk+$ ls -l
/usr/local/encap/git-1.5.3_20071207/bin/git-svn
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root staff 119648 2007-12-08 10:53
/usr/local/encap/git-1.5.3_20071207/bin/git-svn
vozzer@kermit:~/gitproj/gtk+$
/usr/local/encap/git-1.5.3_20071207/bin/git-svn --version
git-svn version 1.5.3.7.8.g8e742 (svn 1.4.6)
vozzer@kermit:~/gitproj/gtk+$
/usr/local/encap/git-1.5.3_20071207/bin/git-svn rebase

[snipped]

, proceeds normally.  I have included the output of `git-svn
--version' above for both versions,
but also take note of the encap directories for approximate dates: the
working version was
built from a fresh checkout on 2007-12-07, the non-working version was
built from
yesterdays checkout.

For reference, the url for the gtk+ svn repo is:

http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gtk+/trunk

I initialized the git-svn repo with the usual '-T trunk -t tags -b
branches' args.
