Per http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2011-03/0661.shtml:
When using 'svnrdump dump' to dump a revision in which multiple property changes
were made to the same node, and invalid dumpstream is created.
In a later mail, the reported better describes the problem:
{{{
So for an original dump representation like this:
---
Node-path:
Node-kind: dir
Node-action: change
Prop-content-length: 42
Content-length: 42
K 3
foo
V 3
bar
K 3
bar
V 3
baz
PROPS-END
---
The svnrdump output for the same transaction comes out like this:
---
Node-path:
Node-kind: dir
Node-action: change
Prop-delta: true
Prop-content-length: 26
Content-length: 26
K 3
foo
V 3
bar
PROPS-END
Prop-delta: true
Prop-content-length: 26
Content-length: 26
K 3
bar
V 3
baz
PROPS-END
---
Note the second "orphaned" prop-delta.
