Hello,

Somehow I got a control character into a log entry - the revprops file
is attached. By manually editing the file to remove this char the
problem was resolved and the push back to the server worked

The char is actually the whitespace between 'page' and 'for'.

There are the errors on the terminal and from the remote apache server logs:

evdb at cindy ~/svk/send-a-test/SendATest $ svk push

## in apache error logs:

This is svk, version v2.0.1 (using Subversion bindings 1.4.3)

Cheers,
