Bug #29921 for SVN-Access: SVN::Access fails on resources with "-" character in name

Hello- One of my Subversion repos has a "-" (dash, minus) in the name, which causes SVN::Access to fail with: "Invalid resource format in my-repo! (format 'repo:/path')!" However, Subversion does not have a problem with this character. Access.pm uses the pattern ^\w*\:*\/ to detect valid resource names. "\w" indicates alphanumeric and '_' ([A-Za-z0-9_]). Perhaps the more liberal "\S" should be used, as in "^\S*\:*\/". Or, for more accuracy, the Subversion book[1] states "... path names can only contain legal XML (1.0) characters. Subversion also prohibits TAB, CR, and LF characters in path names ...". However, I am not sure how to represent that as a regex, as that includes almost all of UTF-8 ( [#x20-#xD7FF] | [#xE000-#xFFFD] | [#x10000-#x10FFFF] ). So here is a pattern that I t*think* covers the majority of allowed characters, and further limits repo names to either "repo:/path" or "/path" : /^(\S+\:)?\/\S*$/ Minimally, please consider "^\S*\:*\/".
