This starts getting more complicated at every turn.  The included
mini-series (probably textually depends on the other 6 patches though)
"fixes" this.

HOWEVER: Subversion itself broke compatibility here.  In 1.4:

  $ svn info new; echo $?
  new:  (Not a versioned resource)

  0

Note the extra linebreak and successful exit.  Current git-svn
precisely matches this output.  In 1.5, it's different:

  $ svn info new; echo $?
  svn: 'new' is not under version control
  1

While it is of course up to you what you would like to do (and modulo
test_must_fail, 2/2 can still be used to fix the tests if you decide
to reject 1/2), I suggest changing to 1.5 behaviour.  exit(1) is the
sane thing to do in this case, and that is already breaking
bit-for-bit compatibility with SVN 1.4, so we might as well adopt the
new error message.  Of course this prevents us from comparing the
output literally in the tests, so I settled for a slightly weaker
check: failure status and mention of the filename.

Unfortunately this does raise the question whether the URL-encoding
issue treated in the other series is in fact a similar incompatibility
between 1.4 and 1.5, not a (minor but long-standing) bug in git-svn.
