Hi,

While adding Glassfish to SVNSearch[1] I stumled upon a couple of
commits where the log messages have encoding issues causing the
Subversion server to fail serving the log:

$ svn log -r 1100 https://glassfish-svn.dev.java.net/svn/glassfish-svn
svn: REPORT of '/svn/glassfish-svn/!svn/bc/1100': 200 OK
(https://glassfish-svn.dev.java.net)

$ svn log -r 10626 https://glassfish-svn.dev.java.net/svn/glassfish-svn
svn: REPORT of '/svn/glassfish-svn/!svn/bc/10626': 200 OK
(https://glassfish-svn.dev.java.net)

I've worked through similar problems with other projects before and
the problem is usually solved by editing the svn:log revprop. It's
usually conversions from CVS using cvs2svn that has caused the
problem.

I managed to work my way around this problem by manually recreating
the missing revisions but I thought I'd still let you know since the
Glassfish repo is effectively corrupt for certain use cases.

Anyway, here's the SVNSearch page for Glassfish:

Thanks,
Eirik.
