    Description

      "svn switch" is able to switch a file to a directory but, having done that,
      cannot switch the directory back to the file.  When "d" is a directory and "f"
      is a file, the output is:
      
      + svn switch file:///home/julianfoad/tmp/svn-switch-test/repos/d f
      D  f
      A  f
      Updated to revision 1.
      
      + svn switch file:///home/julianfoad/tmp/svn-switch-test/repos/f f
      /home/julianfoad/src/subversion/subversion/libsvn_repos/delta.c:209:
      (apr_err=160005)
      svn: Invalid filesystem path syntax
      svn: svn_repos_dir_delta: invalid editor anchoring; at least one of the input
      paths is not a directory and there was no source entry
