Apparently I failed to notice for a long time that it was not working for subversion, even though I am already on svn 1.8.9.

I have a minimally-maintained fork---minimal as in the sense that I am not developing major new features but I do try to incorporate all known fixes.

Thanks, @maverickwoo, I'll follow that one.

@maverickwoo: You don’t have issues enabled on your fork, or I would post this there—It looks like there is some logic to determine if the current subversion directory is below a branches or tags directory and then extract a branch name from that. For me, subversion always reports unknown for the branch.

@zbeekman I have just enabled issue on my fork. You can open an issue there now.

The logic to get the branch for svn is to execute svn info --xml and parse the output. So when you open the issue, can you please include the output of that command on your working directory? Thanks!
