[Bug 962284] Re: regression: svn export modifies user-supplied target name

[James McCoy]

This was an intentional change in the behavior of the command line so
that peg revisions are consistently handled by all commands.  You need
to add a trailing @ to the target filename to "escape" the @ that you
want to be part of the filename.

Title:
  regression: svn export modifies user-supplied target name

Status in subversion package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Description:	Ubuntu precise (development branch)
  Release:	12.04

  subversion package: 1.6.17dfsg-3ubuntu3
  svn, version 1.6.17 (r1128011)

  The user supplied target for svn export appears to be truncated if it
  contains an '@' symbol.

  Example bad case:

  > svn export https://teflon.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/teflon/trunk/teflon.py 'myfile.py at r123'
  > ls
  myfile.py 

  Expected behavior:  The remote file should be exported to the local
  file name "myfile.py at r123"

  Expected behavior was observed in the Oneiric package (subversion: 1.6
  .12dfsg-4ubuntu5    svn, version 1.6.12 (r955767))
