Hi Jelmer. Thanks for the speedy reply!

Oops, missed that. Though I only began embedding the user names as
they weren't working without them previously...

That doesn't seem to work unfortunately, or I've missed something:
$ svn proplist https://papyrus.usask.ca/svn/dept/gt/trunk
Properties on 'https://papyrus.usask.ca/svn/dept/gt/trunk':
svn:ignore
$ bzr info svn+https://papyrus.usask.ca/svn/dept/gt/trunk
bzr: ERROR: Permission denied: ".": PROPFIND request failed on '/svn/
dept/gt/trunk'
Are you able to do the above 'bzr info' with your install?

Unfortunately Python crashes when I try the above using the Subversion
1.5 r27527 snapshot (that's beta that's online) -- this happens with
both Python 2.4 and 2.5, and using Swig 1.3.27 and 1.3.31. :-(
I also tried updating to the bleeding edge Subversion, but this causes
bzr-svn to fail complaining that the Python bindings weren't found.
Grepping through the code, there's no mention of
svn_delta_invoke_txdelta_window_handler and the only occurrence of
tx_invoke_window_handler is in testing code.
Brian.
