subcommander crashes on svn checkout (https)

[Adrian Petrescu]

I am attempting to use subcommander to check out a working copy of a repository hosted at Google Code, this one to be precise: http://code.google.com/p/adrian-codebook/source

After entering the username and password, just before it shows the repository url contents, it crashes with error:

subcommander: /build/buildd/subversion-1.4.4dfsg1/subversion/libsvn_subr/path.c:343: svn_path_remove_component: Assertion `is_canonical(path->data, path->len)' failed.
Aborted (core dumped)

Hope this helps :)

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10?

OK so I think this happens when you try to check out to a directory that doesn't exist locally, expecting subcommander to automatically create it. Maybe a change in the code to the first mkdir after checkout to include a -p?

Confirming because it happens to several users.
