#2467: source.SVN incorrectly handles repositories with special character in URL
-------------------+-----------------------
Reporter:  rutsky  |      Owner:

Priority:  major   |  Milestone:  undecided
 Version:  0.8.7   |   Keywords:  svn
-------------------+-----------------------
 buildbot.steps.source.SVN checks is currently fetched repository is the
 same as set in configuration by running `svn info` and comparing returned
 URL with URL from configuration (see _sourcedirIsUpdatable()).

 If URL in configuration contains special characters or spaces, like
 "svn://example.org/my repo/", `svn info` returns URL in internal
 "canonical" form: "svn://example.org/my%20repo/". So Buildbot always
 thinks that repository changed, removes it and checks out again.

 As workaround you can specify URL in Buildbot configuration in canonical
 form: "svn://example.org/my%20repo/".

 P.S. Also, why parsing `svn info` result and not call `svn info --xml` and
 use XML reader?
