Comment 3 for bug 596639

Yes indeed, although the use-case driving this I believe different from that in bug #135234: what I was trying to do was to refer to the same checkout location via two different UNCs, so that one was conflicting with the stored absolute path. OTOH, bug #135234 seems to be concerned with relocating a checkout around the same filesystem.

(Although Alexander Belchenko's comment in the other bug's comment trail does look like the same use case as here.)

I stress the difference in use-cases to add a plus vote for fixing #135234, or possibly doing a different fix that would sort this one out.
